My mum has recently been diagnosed, she has chemotherapy in 2 weeks, we're all in shock! I'm not sure what stage she is, we've talked about it, I will ask her again about it this tuesday, I recently lost my dad, well in November as well, it's all just happened all at once, it's heart breaking. X, Thank you for reading Kissing heart

  • Hi, hope you don’t mind me saying but you sound quite young, and I’ve  replied because I have a 19 year old son. It was a shock for us too. I am on chemo. I’m very sorry to hear about your dad. Your mum could have been told her stage, but there is so much to take in that some of it doesn’t register. This morning, I was reading about the ‘power of hope’ which can be adopted for loads of situations. My son and I have adjusted  to the situation, but it can take a little while to do this. It’s still early for you all ... be kind to yourselves ... and accept any offers of practical help. Take care now

  • I am also new in this forum, having already almost 2 cycles of the chemo done. With a primary Uterus carcinoma and removal of the entire Uterus incl adnexes and sentinel lymph nobody expected this peritoneal carcinoma at all. Unfortunately it is connected to a severe thrombosis situation with lung embolism and Thrombus in my heart. I still don't know how to deal with the diagnosis and nobody knows how everything develops. Is there anybody who has also the Trousseau syndrome? I would appreciate some further information. Thanks

    I am new to this so not sure if I'm doing it right. I was diagnosed last December with lung cancer wich was infact a CUP, with several tumours, since then I have had 7 chemo sessions. a scan after three chemo's showed most of the metastases were healed the one remaining is the Peritoneal and it had reduced in size. I am having a CT scan next week and a meeting with my Oncologist on 10th June and we will see what happens next, I am very worried so the time is dragging. Fortunately, physically I am OK, very active, just numbness in the feet. Also very up and down in mood swings with tear sessions. My dear wife is having to put up with a lot. Sleep only with tables. Im 73.
