i was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer at 37. 6 years on I still struggle to move on...do others feel the same?

  • Hi I'm the same I was diagnosed in 2012 and I'm still getting through it I often wonder if it will ever end BUT we're still here I tell myself every day how lucky I am but I struggle xx

  • Hi, I was diagnosed Feb 2016, stage 4 cervical cancer. After radical chemo and radio treatment, I was told I was clear in Oct. As happy as I was and feel so lucky to hear those words, I still worry every day, what if it does come back. I suffer daily from the nerve damage it caused and think shouldn't be complaining and just get on with it but it's a lot to take in and deal with. All the changes, I struggle at work as I'm a domicillary carer but don't like to make a fuss. But I have been in more pain and getting upset. I feel alone in it All, like no one understands. I'm on hrt which helps and painkillers. I lost my brother to cancer 3 years ago. He was 23, and I still can't believe he has gone, let alone deal with the fact I had it x
  • Hi....I'm val. It's so good too hear someone else is feeling the way that I feel....I know that sounds bad but I also know that you know how I'm feeling! I honestly don't know what to do now as I don't want to be a burden to anyone. Cervical cancer stage 3 all clear 5 yeats.  But now I'm bleeding bad when I go to the toilet almost every time. And because I have been released from hospital I feel like am I over reacting?....I have only ever depended on myself since the age of 15 so find it difficult to ask for help
