Hi sandykins

we all cope in different ways and I am sure you will find yours. You will have days when everything is fine &normal but other days when all you want to do is sit and cry or get angry. The fear and worry come's and goes but believe me you will get to grips with this. I found talking about things helped me also meeting friends and talking about normal every day things realising that life goes on and you are still a part of it.

​good luck with your treatment.

I was diagnosed with womb cancer last September and had a radical hysterectomy where they found it had spread to my cervix.  After finding it had spread to my peritoneum and had cancerous cells elsewhere I decided not to have radio or chemo.  I am taking Letrozole, a hormone pill as my cancer is incurable.

Like you, I sometimes suffer terrible fear but I realise thereis nothing I can do.  I have joined a gynae cancer group, and I did a six week Hope course run by Macmillan. I come on here to chat to others which helps to alleviate my fears but we have to find coping strategies (not sure if I have managed that yet).  I don't know that you ever come to terms with the diagnosis, we just learn to live with it.  Please come and talk, anyrime, it really does help.

Thank you so much for your reply. I realise the shock of the diagnosis sent me off balance to where I just shut myself off and panicked. I am making more of an effort to live my life and come to terms with the situation and learn to live with it the best way you can. As you say, there's nothing else I can do. Stay strong and thanks again
