Hi There,

I am just feeling lost.  For the past 15 months, since being told after having a 3rd of my lung removed to remove the metastasised cancer, that it had come back but in both lungs and then last month was told its also started to grow in my thyroid bed (had total thyroidectomy in 2020), just feelig overewhelmed all the time.

I have been trying to remain positive and live life as well as I can, howoever i was retired from work in Feb 2025, due to vocal chord damage, anxiety attacks, stress on my body, sever fatigue, and now i just think im feeling lost and left to let the cancer grow.  having looked at stats i feel i possibly only have a few years left, havent been given Lenvatinib just yet, but the constant anxiety, its no longer the what if it returns, but how long do i have left?

I do go to MAggies centre in Manchester but not yet met anyone that is living with it growing an metastising. my friends and family forget about it, as i try to be upbeat, then they dont want to talk about it as a reality, im kind of panicking and just dont knowo where to turn to.
