Just routine CT and follow-up after diagnosis last December and lots of surgery. I'm scared because I'm a bit bloated (feels like fluid) which has come on in the last few days, and a bit sore. Maybe it's just standard  scanxiety,  but finding it hard to focus on other things till the appointment 

Ex-husband being a nightmare and job v full-on. Suspect I'll cope if Weds goes ok. I think we lose perspective when worried about one main thing.

  • I was on my control after ovarian cancer 2 weeks ago, they found few tiny tiny tumours plus something on my liver, scared as fuck. My brain is a mess and I don't get any support from my partner. He is just tired cause I'm always in a bad mood. Today he just left without saying a word, he did the same thing on Sunday and of course I passed out when he was gone, reaction after my second jab. I totally understand that you are scared, hate this shit!

    Thanks for your reply and sorry it has taken me so long to reply. My scan was mostly clear- but also found some v tiny nodule which needs to be re-scanned in 4 months. Hopefully just a result of operations I've had. I wish it could just be all clear!

    I am sorry to hear about your husband.  I just don't get their reactions sometimes, and frankly, I am tired of making excuses for men, along the lines of "they are upset and don't know how to react". I am sorry,  but they are grown-ups and it's not too much to ask for basic kindness.

    Anyway, I have now divorced mine (a v long overdue decision I should have made years ago). I made the decision a few months before my diagnosis. It was a year of hell tbh, but he has finally gone,  now he has the ££ he wanted. Sorry,  will stop there - don't want to be a divorce bore!

    I hope things have improved for you and thanks again for your reply.
