I'm so scared, can't think straight, getting no support from my husband whatsoever. 

I've been googling the symptoms, I know not a good thing to do. I think I have cervical cancer.

  • Hi  and a warm welcome to the Online Community although so sorry to hear about your health concerns and how you feel you are not receiving support from your husband. This is such a hard time but I do hope you will find lots of comfort and support from people who understand here on the Online Community. 

    My first piece of important advice is stay away from random googling - you will get a 1000 answers and only a few will be helpful.

    The best thing you can do is connect in with our dedicated support groups so can I recommend you start by joining our Cervical cancer group. This is a safe place to talk to other people who might have been on the same journey as you.

    If you'd like to connect in with this group, you need to join the group. First click on the Green link I have created above. Then once the page opens up click on the black banner that says [click to join] at the bottom, or the [Join] button under "Group tools."

    You can then introduce yourself by putting up a new post by clicking in the box near the top right with + New  (Computers) or + (Mobile Devices). You will then see a dropdown menu so why not hit ‘Start a Discussion in New here, say hello’

    You could copy and paste the text from this your first post. You can also search through existing ‘Discussions’ and click [reply] if you want to put up a comment.

    It’s always good to talk so do call the Macmillan Support Services on 0808 808 00 00 - most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week Clicking here to see what is available. This service provides lots of cancer information, emotional support, benefit and financial guidance or just a listening ear.

    To find information covering diagnosis, treatments and pages covering most types of cancers check our Online Information and Support Section

    Talking to people face to face can indeed help a lot but during these strange times it’s not that available but do check to see if you have any Local Macmillan Support in your area has opened up. Do also check out for a local Maggie's Centre

    Always around if you need further help in navigating the community.

    All the very best ((hugs))
