Diagnosed yesterday with ovarian cancer and feeling totally overwhelmed. Just signed up here this morning but not sure what to do.

  • Hi  and welcome to the Online Community, although I am am always sorry to see folks finding us and so sorry to hear about your Ovarian Cancer diagnosis. This indeed will be overwhelming.

    A cancer diagnosis brings a lot of confusion, stress and many questions but talking with other people who are on the same type of journey helps a lot.

    The Community has various support groups so can I direct you to our Ovarian cancer group as this is the place where you will connect with others walking the treatment journey both as patient or family.

    Follow the link I've created above then choose ‘click to join' when the page opens.

    You can then introduce yourself and post questions selecting '+New' or '+' (depending on your device) you can also join in with existing discussions by clicking on 'reply'. 

    It’s always good to talk - our Macmillan Support Services provides lots of ways to connect. The service is open every day 8am to 8pm and it's free to call. Clicking here will give you more information.

    You can also email them, use the online chat and we also have our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two working days for replies from our expert team.

    Our Online Information and Support Section  is a good place to find information covering diagnosis, treatments and pages covering most types of cancers.

    All the very best.
