    Well done ……you are an inspiration.

    I am 1.5 years cancer free but I worry about recurrence a lot. How have you dealt with the psychological effects ?

    I’m sorry to hear that you have been unwell – Marion’s post about taking one day at a time is sooo right.

    Take care of yourself.

    Hi Fatema
    I’m sorry to hear about your Mom. I had the same chemo combination as your Mom – it appears to be the treatment of choice for CC. I also found it painful at first but I got good advice here, which worked. The oncology nurse placed a small warm cloth at the cannula, she also reduced the flow of the drug, which together worked for me. Hyperthesia and tingling sensations on fingers and tip of nose are quite usual also.

    I expect others to reply soon to share their experience.

    Take care

    I’m so pleased to hear of the successful surgery on your Mom and I hope she makes a quick recovery. Well done on completing such extensive research – you were so right to question the initial diagnosis.

    Come back often and tell us of her recovery.

    Like Jim, I’ve got the all clear almost 18 months now – but I get a bit worried about a recurrence from time to time. When I catch myself thinking negatively, I just have a quick chat with myself and try and think about something positive. To fight this cancer, we need all the help we can muster and joining the young adults support group is a great idea.

    Go luck
