  • Hello  

    My name is Steph, I’m part of the team who look after the Online Community here at Macmillan. 

    I'm sorry to read that you're experiencing unusual sweating following your cancer surgery. I wondered if you'd discussed this with your healthcare team? It's important that you contact your healthcare team with any concerns so your symptoms can be assessed and so you find the right support.

    Macmillan have this information about follow-up care after treatment which might be helpful to have a read through. We'd encourage you to make an appointment with your GP, or speak to your team at the hospital if you have a regular contact there. 

    You would also be very welcome to call the Macmillan Support Line to talk this through with a nurse. Our Support Line teams are available 7 days a week, 8am-8pm on freephone 0808 808 00 00email or live webchat.

    It's positive that you have reached out here on the Community. It can be really helpful to connect with others in similar circumstances. By replying here, I've bumped your post so that more members will see it. 

    Please do let us know how you get on?
