Tough going and I am not the same anymore
Tough going at times will I ever be able to live my life again? Not as it was that’s for sure just had enough now sorry to moan but if you can’t do it here where can you?
Well done and yes we must be positive but tough at times planning to go out or rushing back as need to get home for various reasons can’t take tablets for ever? No support from hospital or GP so who do you turn to? Still got lots of issues so going to message GP tomorrow but not expecting much ?
Moan away! It's so grim at times and can feel relentless and so tough to be positive. The dark days sure are the toughest. Where are you treatment/ prognosis wise if you don't mind me asking?
Not sure where you are treatment/ prognosis wise but do you not have a cancer/ oncology nurse/ team given as contact as I have? Are you not on ongoing 'surveillance ' if your active treatment is over, as any ongoing issues I've been told to speak to them? You shouldn't be struggling with any symptoms and GP/ oncology team should be responding? Will be extremely hard to be positive if you're still feeling unwell/ got active symptoms?
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
