I had radiotherapy and chemo for 6 weeks 5 days a week I finished on 7th April I know you have to wait 6 months for a pet scan which I have had now waiting for oncologist to see me on 19th Nov it's an awful waiting game I am scared as I carnt have immunotherapy and they cannot operate any suggestions to make me feel a bit more positive as my mind is working overtime at the moment I am taking 50 mls of oxycodon 12 hourly I know everybody's journey can be different just don't want to pass in pain if that's my future

  • Hi' Sue, Raymond here,

    Yes the waiting game, we've all been through it. I don't know if it helps but I had a large bowel one 80mm in 03. Then it came back in my lung last year. But I am feeling fine now and more or less back to my normal self. There's no reason why you shouldn't be the same but it does take time. 

    Lot's of us have been through it you are not on your own you are among friends on here. You will feel better in time Keep in touch with us and let us know how you get on.
