Anxious but wanted to say hello

  • Hello Sara99,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. 

    I can imagine it's a nerve-wracking time for you. When you’re worried that you may have cancer, it can be tempting to look for answers or think the worst, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better. And the only person that can diagnose you is your doctor. You can read more about the referral process on our website, which I hope will make you feel more prepared and don't be afraid to raise any questions or concerns with the doctor.

    Best wishes,

    Moderator Anastasia
