Diagnosed with Cervical Cancer

Hi new to this. Started treatment last week feeling ok but tired. Should be having a sleep now really! 

  • Hello Vik24

    I'm sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis of cervical cancer. Undoubtedly it's a difficult time for you. 

    It's good to hear that you've been feeling ok after the first week of treatment. Understandably you're tired and cancer can play havoc with people's sleep routines, not just due to the treatments but also the psychological impact of all that you're going through. Try to rest when you can and do talk with your care team if sleeping becomes a real problem. 

    Hopefully treatment will progress smoothly for you over the summer. If you think it would help to talk with one of our nurses for support or advice at any point you're most welcome to give them a call. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any information that they can. They're available Monday to Friday  9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch Vik and let us know how you get on over the next few weeks.

    Sending my best wishes,
