Struggling with treatment

hey,

im 21 years old, I was diagnosed with uterine cancer, I'm currently undergoing treatment and at first I was very positive but I'm not half way through and feel like there no light at the end of the tunnel... Any advice how to get over this stage??

 

thanks

    I know this may sound daft but take an interest in your treatment ask questions become your own expert on your treatment (dont google).  Own whats happening to you.   Speak to the staff as Lorraine says.  I found that talking about my treatment with husband and friends really helped me because I could voice what I was feeling.

    I kept a chemo then radiotherapy diary and just put down how I was feeling physically and mentally.  I soon noticed a pattern and could anticipate when I was going to be down so could plan better.

    Sometimes as Lorraine says the reality of whats happening hits you during treatment rather than at the begining.  Stay posative
