Recent diagnosis

Hi Izzy,

They will first want to determine the size of the tumour. This will be in the form of Ultra Sound and CT Scans. They will then know what to do. .Try not to worry, I no it is hard, but take each step at a time, they know what they are doing. Everyone on this group is here to help you.

Lots of hugs

Thank you smelling thank you for your reply. I have read your journey, you have been through a lot and it has given me hope that my cancer can be treated. I've already had 3 ultrasound a ct  and mri scan. I have to have another ct scan of my chest to check it hasn't spread.. It's the waiting that that makes me anxious.

Wishing you all the best

Sorry for getting your name wrong predictive text

I have lived all my life with that. LOL. Stay strong Lizzy, we are all here to help you. Try not to worry, hard I know. It's all the checks that take all the time. Once a plan has been decided, it will all fall into place, and it will happen very quickly.

Stay strong

Hi Izzy

It's a journey and half I know 

I had surgery last week after about 6 weeks of scans and biopsy. I know exactly what you mean the anxiety waiting for the results is the worst.

The only way I coped was by keeping busy and working as I found weekend's worse but everyone is different. Do what you can. Keep in touch let us know if you want to chat more

Hi Fee

I hope you are recovering well after your surgery. I've been trying to keep busy, I find night time the worst, I wake up at 3am and can't go to sleep again, I'm exhuasted. Thank you for the offer of a chat. I will keep in touch.
