Leiomyosarcoma

I am very worried about the new diagnosis of my husband and would like to know more about it 

  • Hello and thanks for your post

    People often experience a whole range of emotions when they’re diagnosed with cancer. And family often go through similar emotions. There’s really no right or wrong way to feel. But we know that talking can often relieve some of the distress and anxiety.  There's some useful advice on Macmillan Cancer Support's website on talking more openly about cancer and you can look at this by clicking here.

    We have some information on our website about cancer and emotions and tips for ways of coping which you can read at this link.

    We also have information on leiomyosarcoma here .Macmillan Cancer Support has information at this link as well as Sarcoma UK here

    Sarcoma UK support people affected by this cancer, and you and your husband may find it helpful to get in contact with them.

    I hope this helps. Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,

    Celene
