Just been diagnosed with ovarian cancer stage 3 and waiting for chemo to start on 2 June
Feeling very scared would love to talk to someone who has been through this or is going through it
Hi Bird and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and although I wasn't diagnosed with the same type of cancer as you, I know how scary the thought of chemotherapy can be.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the ovarian cancer group, where you'll connect directly with others who have had chemo for ovarian cancer.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
