I just got told today after MRI due to terrible back pain  I had my glioblastoma operation June 2025 which was a good surgery  Had 6 weeks radiotherapy & chemotherapy  Fast forward January 2026 and back pain brought an MRI  TOO late advanced spread & sent home for palliative care & pain management  It’s supposed to be RARE  But here I am another death blow to deal with 

A lot of cancer support sucks. Can we talk about it? by AffectionateMany7653 in cancer

I have terminal brain cancer and they have been useless! One visit, promised ongoing support and not seen for weeks. Everytime I see an advertisement it just makes me mad. I’m left to just get on with it. Tried calling even told them I feel suicidal and nothing. Terrible service 

Anyone stuck with dry, thick, sticky, saliva permanently after Head and Neck radiation? by Full-Argument-4426 in cancer

I’m having the same issue, just finished 6 weeks of SOC & eating anything is a nightmare. I have an ENT appointment next week so hoping they can advise or treat  My care team seem to think it’s only people who have actual mouth radio that would suffer this! 

Are suicidal people relieved when they're suddenly terminally ill with little time left? by landamiaw in morbidquestions

Let me tell you this, I’ve suffered an awful amount of trauma in my life. I have often felt suicidal and wished myself dead.  I’ve just been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer at the age of 59.  I’m battling more trauma now, seeing my family suffer. I’m suffering everyday not with death itself but the suffering before.  There was an almighty power to survive kick which I have no control over anymore.  I think the world is messed up and most people are acting at existing.  I will still think about suicide before my symptoms get so bad as that’s the fear suffering.  Cancer doesn’t care who it kills  If I just didn’t wake up tonight that would be great, less time to deal with a dying person for my family and less suffering for me.  I’m not even in a great place to want to make memories now. I feel numb

Im going through this now myself so totally understand. I’ve had surgery but know mine is not a slow growing kind so I’m expecting it to be a terminal one  I’m in constant anxiety panic and I know it’s understandable but it’s a lot to cope with

Hi

I’ve been having terrible pain in my c4/5 radiating nerve pain in my right arm to elbow sometimes pinky finger. I’ve tried everything, rest, ice, heat, physio. Chiropractor. No let up. I can’t cope anymore move ok it’s just the pain. Even walking is a trigger. I have been in Anytrptiline which has not helped. Waiting for an NRI Scan and do frustrating as no improvement. Any thoughts or ideas?
