  • Hi Jonny and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I'm sorry about the constant discomfort you've been having since you had your surgery.

    I've had a look through the forum and wanted to put you in touch with [@Jodc17]‍ as they had this done at the beginning of the year so hopefully they will pop by to say hello and share their experiences with you once their Christmas festivities have finished.

    Our cancer nurses will be back on Friday, and then Monday - Friday next week (except New Year's Day) if you'd like to have a chat with them about this as well. You can contact them on 0808 800 4040 between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Wishing you a lovely Christmas and wonderful New Year.

    Kind regards,
