  • Hello Dollypops and thank you for posting on Cancer Chat.

    I’m just posting a quick response to let you know that from this morning the Cancer Chat forum will be in read only mode while we carry out essential maintenance.

    This means that nobody will be able to reply to your post until the forum is back up and running on Wednesday.

    We wouldn’t like you to think that nobody cared enough to reply so I just thought I would let you know that you might have to wait a few days to get a response.

    Kind regards,

  • I'm glad to hear your husband's prostate cancer has been removed Dollypops although I'm sorry about the symptoms he's currently experiencing with his breast.

    I do hope he's managed to see a doctor since you made this post but if either of you would like to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, you can do so on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful, and supportive, and will do all they can to answer your questions and put your mind at ease.

    Best wishes to you both,
