  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I'm not a member of this forum but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. 

    If you let the other forum members know what advice you're looking for I'm sure they'll do their best to help.

    While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

  • Hi there. There are people on here who can help but as we are all at different  stages with this disease, it helps to know a bit more about you.

  • Sorry I have just seen both these replies. I am not great at technology and struggle with the site. 

    So will put it here if OK and this is the SHORT VERSION.  . .  But really I think k someone will need the whole story if they are strong enough xxx

    Couple months later. Actually cancer (u will need more details on thus) 4 lots of chemotherapy. I know not a lot. 

    I am basically allergic to everything chemotherapy related. (Long story) 

    Remission November last year

    Never got much better. Fell out a window early this year. Ct scan revealed 2 new small tumours. 

    I am waiting for a 3 month rehabilitation for alcoholism mid July and ATM I don't EVER want chemotherapy again

  • Hello again. It sounds like your cancer diagnosis dropped right into the middle of other life problems and so it's  not surprising that you are feeling the way you are. Add to that your experiences with getting the diagnosis and the subsequent treatment which weren't  straightforward. And now, from what you've said about your latest CT scan, you are facing a recurrence while waiting for your rehab to start. Sorry I know zero about alcoholic rehab but am guessing that you couldn't  do it and chemo at the same time. What is your onc advising in terms of treatment?
