  • Hello

    I've read your posts. I'm here for you. There is alot can be done now to help treat cancer. I'm in a bad was mentally too. I would do anything to change what's happening,  its turned my wonderful life upside down. 

    We are all here for you. What type of breast cancer do you have? 

    Love julie xx

  • Hi Ange

    Just been reading about what a horrendous time you are having. So much of what you said about the panic etc sounded like me. I have no diagnosis but am waiting for CT results after an urgent referral for suspected lung cancer. 

    If it would help at all to message me just to vent or chat about nothing in particular then please do.

    I have severe health anxiety and have been treated for depression for 12 years so I am really struggling to cope with the wait let alone a diagnosis.

    You will be in my thoughts

  • Hi, Lilyange,

    Really hope you are ok.  Asking for help and getting support is important, not feeling alone.  I came across this site recently as my hubby had surgery to remove part of his bowel which was cancer. 

    This is a great place to find people who understand some of what you are going through and offering support.  I really hope that you find support with your anxiety.

    Thinking of you, let me know how you are getting on.

  • Hello Angie, I have been following your posts and I so empathise with you, depression and anxiety are horrible and I have had episodes myself.  I am undergoing tests for cancer and my husband who is normally fit as a fiddle has been undergoing tests for weeks for possible COPD/asthma, they don't really know what.  He had an ECG  blood tests and urine tests  done recently and went back fo the results today.  I waited in the car already fretting.  Well, guess what they could not find the ECG results and the urine test showed traces of blood, so another sapmle is needed. I tell you I nearly passed out. My anxiety is extreme and I feel l like a bomb about to explode.  I am sitting here now shaking and shivering. He has to go back Monday for results, that is the day we go off for a weeks holiday in England,  That is if I don't hear anything from the hospital regarding myself.  My GP has given me 2 mg a day Diazapam, and I see a councellor on the 25th of March.  I don't know how much more of this I can take, like you my appetite is non-existant, and I can't concntrate on anything,  but as my GP said today you have look after yourself to cope with your health problems.  I just wish that I had the kind of mind that could cope.  Do not feel lonely, you are not alone in your thinking.  Please PM and we can try to help each other if you would that. xx
