I'm afraid to go back to the hospital

I found out nearly 2 years ago I have cervical cancer and was waiting for a date to have surgery to remove my womb but I never went back to the hospital I iv ignored all letters sent to me from the hospital when I was last in the hospital they said if I didn't have my womb removed in a year I've die by five years and I was terrified so I've been trying to block it out like it's not real but so much time has passed and I'm getting worried now I'm afraid to go back to the hospital incase I'm told the cancer has spread

  • I'm new to the group but I thought I'd join as I had surgery a week ago although I had to have surgery on my vagina... I felt so embarrassed,I didn't no who to talk to and who to tell.

    The hospital team including the nurses have been absolutely amazing,they take such good care of you. 

     The McMillan nurses are on hand all the time, if you find talking about it hard then you can email them instead.  Sometimes it's much easier to write it down and ask questions than face to face.

      Have you managed  to go back or speak to anyone yet ??
