I was thinking of joining an Ovarian Cancer Facebook group and was just wondering which one(s) were best to join? Any recommendations please?

I’m on the OC UK group, and there’s quite a few familiar faces from here on there. Not everyone is obvious because we have some great nicknames on here, but you’ll soon figure it out! That’s the only one I chose to join. I spend more time on here than I do on there, but both are good sources of information and support.

I’m on Cancerucan as well. It’s very interesting, but I don’t like how people who chose chemo often end up being looked down on by those who go wholly alternative. For a group which is supposed to be respectful of other’s choices, this is a bit of a drawback. Still, there are good ideas and information to be had, so definitely worth a look.

Oh my goodness Lily Anne, I have just joined the group and saw your post on there, I didn't get chance to read it properly though as it had your post location as Rushden, is that Rushden in Northamptonshire - I live in Raunds! xxxx
