  • Hi Japagow,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I wanted to send a reply so that a few more people should see your post and hopefully you'll get some more replies.

    I can see you have been speaking to others on the forum which is good - I hope that it can be helpful for you.

    Do of course discuss any questions or concerns with your doctor when you can, to see if there's anything they can suggest. You are also welcome to speak to our nurses if you'd like to talk things through, either by posting in the 'Ask the Nurses' section of this forum, or by calling freephone 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    Wishing you all the best,
