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 everyone.

    Eileen I had xray and ecg beforehand too, every time I have bloods taken too.

    Strange about the fear going Eileen, I am totally at peace with myself, I decided some time ago, that today is no different to when I didn't have my diagnosis and I really don't know what tomorrow brings, there is no point to me worrying about any of it. I have my results on Tuesday and have just settled myself they will be what they will be. Much better than all the stressing of ...what if...as before. When I read back to my posts I was like a scared rabbit, I have come a long way teehee.

    Love to all xxxxxx

  • Good luck tomorrow flower and yes,you have come a long way and we are all glad that we have been part of it.;)
