  • Hello Risley

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently been told you have cancer in your spine and ribs. It's understandable that you're feeling worried and scared about what this means for the future. 

    Has the Consultant been able to give you any information about treatment options for you to help manage things? If not then hopefully you'll have this appointment with them soon and they'll be able to talk through your concerns and questions. 

    If you want to chat with one of our nurses about your diagnosis you're welcome to call them Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. I'm sure they'll be happy to offer any advice,  information, and support that they can. 

    Obviously, this is a difficult time for you Risley. Keep in touch with us here on the forum if it helps to have somewhere to offload how you're feeling, ask questions or chat with others. 

    Best wishes,
