Sleepless nights

Hi  Don't worry you are making sense  - you are just in a state of total shock as we all are when we are diagnosed with any type of cancer. By joining this forum you'll realise you're not alone there are people in the same situation and we all support each other.

I myself didn't have chemotherapy so I can't offer any insight but I'm sure the ladies here will be along to chat. I've attached a link to some reading matter about Side effects of chemotherapy which I hope you'll find helpful. Have a chat with your CNS or radiologist for reassurance.

My cancer is different, but a cancer diagnosis of any kind makes us ask lots of questions, causes confusion, stress and probably emotions we’ve never experienced before.  I see you’ve joined our Cervical cancer group, this will be a good place to connect with others making the same type of cancer journey.

It’s always helpful to others if you write a little something (or a lot) about yourself and your journey to date. You can enter it into your profile (click on your username and select “Profile”) It’s helpful to other members with a similar diagnosis who can then hopefully answer your questions. It also means that you don't have to keep writing the same thing over and over. You can amend or update it at any time. 

To find more information covering diagnosis and treatments there are pages covering most types of cancers which can be found on our Online Information and Support Section. 

The Macmillan Support Services also offer lots of information, support, financial guidance or just someone to listen. It’s free to call 0808 808 0000. Most services are available 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week. Have a look by Clicking here to see what is available and we also have our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two to three working days for replies from our expert team.

Sending you welcoming hugs B xx
