Cancer fears

 I am potentially nearing the end of my treatment but cant stop worrying about life after what if cancer returns. I remember before cancer I would always worry about getting and now I feel this fear will be worse. I just dont understand how to stop worrying its like cancer can reappear anywhere so its like im stuck living on borrowed time maybe i get a week or a month or years its like it always comes back . I spoke with another patient who had it reoccur numerous times its the same with other people i spoke to i feel like it was pointless undergoing the treatment if im just going to end up with a worse form of cancer later.

  • It's great to read that you're nearing the end of your treatment Waquarr and your fears about the future are completely understandable but I want you to know that you are not alone with these thoughts as many of our members have had them too and I'm sure some of them will be along soon to offer their support and advice.

    In the meantime I hope this information I've found online will help and if you can, try not too dwell on this too much. I know that is so much easier said than done after everything you have been through but fearing something that may not happen will take away from what you have gone through and achieved so far.

    Kind regards,
