Hi Vickig and thank you for posting.

I am sorry to hear about your signet ring cancer diagnosis.

It is completely understandable that you are feeling shocked after receiving this news.

Getting a cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, and many people describe feeling numb, frightened or unsure what to think or do next.

We have more information on how cancer can make you feel and managing your emotions on our website. 

Your hospital team should explain what this diagnosis means, whether any further tests are needed, and what treatment options may be available.

It can help to write down any questions you have before your appointments, or ask a family member or friend to come with you for support.

Ovacome is a UK charity dedicated to supporting anyone affected by ovarian cancer.

They have a support line, online forums, information about rarer ovarian cancers, and support for younger people with a diagnosis.

If you post on their forum you may link with someone in a similar situation.

I hope this information is helpful.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support

It might help to talk things through with one of our nurses on the helpline. You can call for free on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

Kind regards

Tina
