In a very strange place. GP told me a few hours ago he was 80+% sure I had prostate cancer and my hip x ray showed multiple sclerotic patches. I'm 69. Now in an emotional tumble drier, my lovely wife so upset, family being supportive and lovely but.... Seeing consultant soon I'm told. Not sure anyone can help but reading all the other stories makes me feel less alone and less scared. Sense I am at the start of a difficult journey. Struggling to get my head round this.
Good Afternoon Cader28
It's not an issue - dong a bit on the community whilst on holiday will keep me off the kebabs and EFES beer!!
Remember our Support Line on 0808 808 00 00 (8am to 8pm 7 days a week) is there for both of you - nobody goes through this journey alone and 1 in 2 people suffer mental health issues on the way - so yes keeping busy and not dwelling on the condition does help - and the guys and girls on the Support Line are there for you too.
Best wishes - Brian.
