Hello had womb cancer and hysterectomy when I had the the hysterectomy cancer went aswell that was 7 weeks ago why am I feel so low and depressed
Hi Moonlight
I am sorry to hear that you are feeling low after your womb cancer and surgery.
7 weeks is early days in my opinion. Although the surgery has been done and physically things are healing, emotionally it is all a lot to deal with. I found from diagnosis to treatments everything was busy, appointments, surgery etc- there wasn't time to think. It was only after the treatments had all ended and I felt a bit better- then all the processing could happen.
Have you spoken to your CNS/doctor about how you are feeling? It is not uncommon to feel low after surgery. Have you got plenty of support around you and people you can talk to?
Perhaps think about giving the Support Line a call and talking things through with one of the nurses. They are there from 8am-8pm every day.
