Hey everyone, i got a call on monday night to tell me i had cervical cancer. Im on my own with 2 sons 9 yrs old a 1 years old. Im so scared for them. The doctors were going for a meeting today about a plan for me and i have not heard back yet im really anxious. Any tips on how not to think the worst x
The treatment will put you into what’s called a “surgical menopause”. Pelvic radiation will destroy your ovaries, so you will go into the menopause. I’m astonished no-one has told you this.

Yeah you go in early menopause...thought the they would've told you this...you can discuss this the nurse who is part of the team..Hopefully you will get the treatment with just a little tiredness xxx
You would need to discuss this with your doctor, who can advise if you need any treatment. I really hope that when you feel up to it that you put in a complaint about your treatment. It’s been really poor.

I don’t know either, but you are left with the consequences. I would make a formal complaint in your shoes, but I appreciate you have enough to think about right now, and it won’t change your situation.

Sorry…that was meant for Carla.
