I'm so sorry you're going through this, I agree with Sassy59. Mammalian nurses are absolutely wonderful. They were so caring and supportive of my family and I when my husband was very poorly . Do get in touch with them, im surprised your GP practice hasn't already alerted them to you. Very best wishes x

What you need is help with the quality of your life - there are people like Macmillan Cancer Support, there are drugs to help you feel better. peege and sassy59 are spot on. This link is to cancer support.

They even to a point help with finance - if needed,

So sorry to read this, it's overwhelming when first diagnosed with cancer. I had my first appointment with respiratory doctor at the oncology department & felt completely in the dark. I had a follow up call from my designated cancer nurse & she was amazing. I sincerely hope you get some answers soon. Find out if you have designated cancer nurse & contact them ASAP xxx
