Hi Pumpkinsmum83 and a warm welcome to the board. Do you have a treatment plan in place yet? These early days are very stressful so I’m glad you’ve found us here. We’re all at different stages of treatment and recovery and if you click on people’s names then their profile page may show their journey so far.
Please stay away from google - it can be scary and out of date - you can ask anything you like on here and we’ll be happy to share advice and experience.

Thankyou so much iseemed to be fine at the beginning but as time went on and I had other appointments the reality hit me like a ton of bricks and my emotions well i can't control them but I have a loving husband and daughter that are helping me through and now to be able to talk to others i think might be helpful to x
Hi Pumpkinsmum83 and a warm welcome to the board from me too. So sorry you find yourself here but glad you’ve found us.
Can you tell us where you are with your treatment? The first few weeks are extremely stressful waiting for the results of all the tests etc and your emotions will be all over the place, but once you have a treatment plan in place things will seem better – honestly, even though it’s hard to believe.
There are some truly inspiring lovely people on here giving lots of advice and support.
Hi net. I haven't started treatment yet they are still doing tests i have to see my oncologist again on Monday 20th and if he has the results and is happy with them then we will hopefully start the following week x
