My daughter (now 27yrs) was diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Burkitts Lymphoma in 2016. She survived the aggressive treatment and has been Cancer free since Dec 2016. At the time she feared not being able to have children but was reassured that many like her had gone to have children. She’s only now been hit with the bombshell that her AMH level is only just over 1 and it is unlikely she will ever have children. Harvesting eggs before her treatment was not advised as the cancer was so aggressive and any delay could effectively cost her her life. Now, almost 4yrs post chemo she has been told that because she is single and post chemo that the NHS won’t fund investigations for any possible treatment. Her world has again come crashing down and she feels she is being punished again for having had cancer! I don't know what to do to help
