Ovarian Cancer

Hi,

I was diagnosed with Cancer in March and although we knew it was Cancer its still a shock to be told it. I have had 2  chemo cycles now and have my 3rd at the end of the month. I would love to chat about the chemo side affects to anyone..

  • Hello and welcome Julygirl,

    sorry to hear you have to have more chemo, and maybe more surgery. Keep us posted about your hospital appointment results.

    Losing my hair wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, I have a wig which I have only worn once, everyone has got used to me without hair now lol.

    It does help having others to talk to with similar problems.

  • hi Julygirl,

    it is strange how things coincide, like your op on the little ones birthday, I hope everything goes well with christening and birthday. That must have been really worrying for you and your daughter, her about you and vice versa.
