Adrenal gland tumour

i have been told I have an adrenal gland tumour and have have a series of tests but I can’t get to see a consultant till mid July .... my emotions are all over the place which has aggravated my depression and anxiety to the extreme ..... I feel really lost ..... and in limbo and very alone. Sorry for the negativity 

  • Welcome to the Cancer Chat forum Vixb although I'm sorry about what's been found and how you're feeling.

    I hope me putting you in touch with [@PMAweedivs]‍ will help as they felt very alone when finding out they had a rare type of adrenal cancer last year so they will completely understand what you're going through at the moment and hopefully be along soon to offer their support and advice. You can read a bit more about their journey just here.

    Do think about seeing your doctor if you're finding your depression and anxiety a bit too much to handle at the moment as they will do all they can to help you whilst you wait to see a consultant in July.

    We're always here if you want to talk more VixB.

    Kind regards,

  • Hi vixb I haven't got the same problem as you but you can live with out the adrenal glands it does mean you have to live on medication, mine haven't worked for over sixteen years now, I'm not trying to panic you, as long as C is only in glands you should not have any problems. I now it's easy to say but try to relax find something that you like to do, remember we've all been through it we know its not nice., best wishes. Please reply.
