Good morning all - thank you for the lovely support and advice available from you all on this site. I have a rather tricky problem since my radical hysterectomy - I have constant wind and have to open my bowels each time I eat anything at all. I smell...
Hello I’m posting on behalf on my aunt and for myself really. After a long road of being misdiagnosed, not listened to and fobbed off by drs my aunt has finally been diagnosed with endometrial clear cell carcinoma. Unfortunately they put this at stage...
Finished chemo last week feeling exhausted, numb feet and hands, rash on hands and brown nails, don’t know what to expect now how long will it take me to feel normal again?
