I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in September, I can't say exactly what because my diagnosis seems to change depending on who I speak to.
I find my consultant and key worker very negative. When I ask questions to try and understand and come to terms with what I have I am just told to accept what they are telling me. They seem more interested in giving me advice on getting my finances in order and claiming benefits that I don't currently need.
I have been feeling very positive up untill now and felt that my first cycle of chemotherapy went really well. I had no side effects and within days my symptoms went completely, but, when I met with my my consultant she seemed almost dissapointend when I said I am still running, working and carrying on with life as normal.
Has anyone else experienced this negative attitude from their consultant? I feel like everyone has given up on me but I am only 40 and not ready to give up yet.
