Hi, I just wanted to thank everyone for being so open & honest. I first posted late September when I was diagnosed with Anal Cancer and so many people offered reassurance and were all so lovely. I've had my planning scan today and will hopefully start Chemoradiotherapy on Monday 18th November, I'm not going to lie, I'm scared of what the next few months has in store for me but reading everyone's comments makes me feel less alone, I've got a really supportive husband & 14 year old daughter but I don't always want to discuss this with them. Every day I pop on to read all the posts and have taken note of what everyone has said and I'm going to take each day at a time & listen to my body. This group is amazing and it feels like an extended family, you are all awesome and I just wanted to 
say thank you xx️
Hi - you will get this done! A few months Bungle said is a small price for life and a future. Be brave and use us in here to share and ask questions, it will seem daunting but so many people can help at your treatment centre, the radiographers, reception team, Macmillan nurses, Consultant and secretary too along with other people waiting for their treatment.
Don’t wait for appointments to ask questions, pick up the phone and ask for help - you will get it x
I had my first 3 month MRI this week - walked in did it and out again as if nothing special to see here! My first MRI I panicked, cried and turned round! This treatment may be ok or may be so hard / but you will get treated, will get your life back and will carry on a slightly different / better person x
I think along with so many on here I an grateful, thankful and blessed to live and have this medical help️
