Hi all,
Was diagnosed with adrenal cortical cancer 2017. Had op to remove gland early 2018, all went well. Recurrance in lymphnodes diagnosed late 2018, another op 2019 to remove these. In Mid 2019 had a scan and again cancer returned in lower abdominal wall, EDP Chemo suggested. Started Chemo in Dec 2019, carried thru till Feb 2020. Was constantly sick, i was crying all the time as my 5 yr old son had to witness all this! Had scan in March 2020 and tumour had shrunk, had to stop chemo due to Covid-19. Restarted Chemo June 2020, had 2 sessions, after each treatment i ended up in my local hospital. Now oncologist says to start a new treatment for Adrenal cancer, but is actualy an old treatmemt for Pancreatic cancer, GEMCAP. I can only have this for 6 months, then they have no idea what to do if it has not worked. I am 44 and have a husband and a 5yr old boy, both are very suppportive, and we talk a lot about my cancer, treatment and feelings. But, I AM SCARED OF DYING, i don't want to yet, trying to stay positive but it is hard. I am worried about how the mortgage and other payments will be met IF i have to stop working etc....
