Looking for others who have been recently diognsed with cervical cancer

Hi Kate We have a group called gynaecological cancer that you can join on here. Go to groups up the top right of this page in the blue heading, click on that and you will see a list of groups. Scroll down to the gyny group and click on that and you can request to join the group. Some in the group had had cervical cancer. I have also had a rare type of cervical cancer but I am 2 years out from end of treatment. If you have any questions please feel free to ask anytime. Cheers Robyn

Hi am 35 4 children and have been diognsed with stage 1b cervical cancer and about to start external beam radiation therapy anyone with advice

Hi Kate It can get tiring towards the end so accept any help with the children, housework etc. The bowels can become a bit loose and you might have some urgency to use them also. You skin can become a bit red and sore towards the end but radiology will give you some sorbolene to rub on it. I didn't find it too hard. Cheers Robyn
