Sorry to read you’ve recurring cancer. These terms are such a worry especially when reading them in a letter. My DH has been on palliative chemotherapy from Jan to July this year as his cancer is now deemed incurable due to metastasis to two other areas. He had original diagnosis in 2013 (no symptoms) two surgeries and placed on chemotherapy regime twice. He still has had no cancer symptoms - it all seems unreal. Awaiting latest scan results for cancer progression. Good luck.

Is anyone familiar with this expression? I never heard of it before but it was mentioned in a letter from my consultant to my GP. I have recurring gynae cancer and have had surgery several times. I’m wondering if this is bad news. I have an appointment in 10 days time. Maybe someone on here has experience of this?
