Finding very difficult to sleep

I was diagnosed with stage -4 Uterus Cancer around the beginning of June last year I am 68 years old

My Chemotherapy commenced in June 2023 and I had six sessions

of this treatment 

The Cancer Marker initially was at 1130 and remarkably 

went down to 33 on the six session of chemotherapy 

During these sessions I was very unwell but to get thru it

After a couple of months of not receiving treatment 

during the of December I started experiencing Abdominal 

pains again

I immediately contacted my Oncologist Doctor who after

obtaining CT Scan and full blood Count tests

immediately put on the Immunotherapy Treatment for Cancer

One week as lapsed and I am rather poorly with loss appetite 

literally no sleep and continuous abdominal pain

I am very upset and depressed and feel that the cancer is getting

worst  I very much need to discuss further for a Second opinion
