  • Hello Montyboy and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I can't begin to imagine how difficult it must be to live on your own with a terminal diagnosis but I'm glad you've reached out to us as we have a very friendly and supportive community, and I'm sure it won't be long until some of our members stop by to say hello and help you feel more at home.

    I also wanted to make this post as I noticed you mentioned your temperature was/is 35.1. If this temperature change is new, doesn't improve or gets worse, please check in with your cancer team, out of hours GP or the NHS on 111 so they can check you're ok.

    I'm thinking of you Montyboy and hope our forum can help you feel less alone.

    Kind regards,

  • Hi sorry to hear this,it’s a scared lonely place when you have no people at home.Im the same as you ,live alone me and my dog awaiting results on a rare cancer ,feel depressed no appetite what’s so ever.when your home alone your mind has nothing else to divert the. Thoughts.Have you got a friend that can pop over and share a meal with you.?Lots of lovely people on here day and night to chat too,Do you have family near? 

  • Hi Montyboy after reading your post I thought  I'd say hello , its good to have a chat on here there are some lovely people some probably with the same diagnosis as yourself and always willing to give good advice and lend a friendly listening ear so its great that you found the site ,it can't be much fun with no one to talk to especially when you have this awful illness ,I'm sure you'll get others on here to chat to you ,if you get too depressed it might help to pay your GP a visit there are things on offer for depression it may just help ,in the meantime fish -pie sounds lovely I hope you enjoyed it and I hope someone sees your post that knows what you're going through you could share little bits of advice or just a friendly chat .
