    Hello and welcome to Cancer Chat, Cindy1957, although I'm sorry for the reason that brings you here. 

    When I read your post just now it made me think of [@DeniseG]‍ and [@andydorro1]‍, who I believe have both had a neuroendocrine cancer diagnosis. I've tagged their names in this post in case they would like to stop by and say hello. You can also see a discussion they had recently about this here. 

    I'm glad you've found this forum, and hope you can find some good support here. We also have a helpline you can call, if you have any questions or concerns: Call free on 0808 800 4040 (Mon - Fri, 9am - 5pm). 

    Please feel free to post whenever you need you. Wishing you all the best,

    Helen
