I had treatment for vaginal/vulva cancer nearly 2 years ago
About 8 weeks ago I started with what I thought was thrush it then became ulcerated.
I had biopsies about 3 weeks ago and they came back post radiotherapy skin changes.
Since then things have got worse, the pain is horrendous and I'm on morphine, there is now a lump behind the big ulcer, I saw my Macmillan nurse on Monday who gave me the morphine and different creams to try.
I really want to believe my cancer is not back but struggling as things don't seem to be getting any better in fact they are getting worse.
