  • Hi Gore0810 and welcome to the Cancer Chat forum, although I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's diagnosis.

    You can find out more about Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) cancer on our website but if you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all they can to give you any further information and/or advice.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been diagnosed with PMP will share their experiences and insight with you soon as well.

    Our community are here for you Gore0810 and will do all they can to support you and your daughter on this journey.

    Kind regards,

  • Hi she has had biopsy results and they say . The epithelium shows positive staining for PAX8 & CK7 immunisations and negative for CK20 & CDX2 markers which is consistent with ovarian origin
