Hi there, l am editing and updating this post in light of a new development. Please see my Profile on Onk for my full story.I was diagnosed 3 years ago with Primary peritoneal cancer. I have had chemo, immunotherapy, chemo again, debulking op and bowel surgery and a stoma and removal of my omentum and another couple of cycles of chemo. At that point, last December l was NED. Since March this year, l have been on Niraparib. I have been so well all summer but became ill just this last week. Yesterday Friday 13th October, l spent all day in A & E from 11am until midnight. I had a CT scan. I was on my own for the result. My cancer has recurred (as l suspected) … So on Monday l will be contacting my oncology team to discuss a possible plan. I am so glad l joined this forum. I already feel well supported.
Hi Moi, People can be so heartless, good for the person who put them out. I used to be in a Tennis Club and of course I had to withdraw from the club and the team. I met someone from the team a couple of years after dx and they actually said to me " Oh hi, I thought you were dead!" Then she realised what she'd just said and walked away. I was stunned, as were the people around me!

Hi Ulls, no problems had a good sleep but just woke early. I've had my covid jab, no side effects arm a little sore thats all. I'm back on my trearment this morning first for 3 months, maybe thats why I'm awake so early, who knows. Hope you dont have long to wait to eat or drink after your bone pill. I'm just going for another cuppa and thinking what to have for breakfast. xx

Hi All, It is really quite tragic that we do get used to people saying these hurtful things without them thinking how they would feel if it was said to them.
The problem is.....these people don't think!
