Hi,
I have my first onvology appointment next week and would love to buddy up with someone in a similar situation to me in the West Midlands area. Be good to be able to chat to people on a similar journey
Morning jayne. Awww I really hope your appointment goes well today I've got everything crossed for you. Yeah my family are being brilliant especially my other half. I just keep saying if you need a break just go out for a few hours. I think I will try some counselling. Thank you xx
Hi Racheal,
So sorry to hear how you're feeling, felt like a ticking bomb until I started my treatment. You're not alone and I hope it will get easier for you. Why your tumor is inoperable? Have they said anything about treatment plan? The reason I'd like to go to Christie is HIPEC, I know it's a good hospital just need to find out if I'm suitable for this kind of surgery. Good luck with your appointment and let us know the outcome. Take care xx
Alls they have mentioned so far at Christies is that they will try and remover the tumour aslong with my womb and bowel to lesson my symptoms and make me more comfortable. My local hospital said they couldn't operate. The tumour is wrapped around my womb and bowel so I'm presuming thats why they have to do chemo to try and shrink it and hopefully to remove it. Plus they can not find where the cancer is growing from. I find out about chemotherapy at about 3pm today. I will let you now how it goes xx
Hi Racheal, how are you doing? Who's your Dr at Christie? Xx
I'm not bad just in a bit of pain with my neck and chest. Had the tivad port fitted yesterday.
I can't spell or pronounce his name I just now it begins with a K
hope your doing ok
Xx
