Hi Tracey, so sorry to hear about your situation.Cancer sucks !!! Re the menopause symptoms. I started taking a natural herb marketed under the name of Promensil well before I would have started menopause normally, just to help with PMT. It was great. I used it for several years. I had to have a radical hyster ( for other reasons) and continued on with the Promensal tabs and the Gynae guy was amazed that I didn't have any menopausal symptoms and hence did not require HRT.

Darling girl, My heart goes out to you. You and your husband have been so strong before, and you will do it again. I hate this horrible, horrible disease and what it does to people. Try and do something nice for yourself today, even if it is just buying some chocolate or flowers. Give your mum a big hug. I get a little where she is as my daughter had NHL at 29yrs, and she is now a survivor. Take Care Miss Moo. Mignon ... View more

Dear Ruth, I feel sad that you are having to go through all this. I am sure that you have been there for everyone else in your family when they needed you.

You need to rest, and not do anything. just be.. Regards Mignon ... View more
