Hello.

New to the forum. 
I have been reading through people's stories and have tried to share some joy and reassurance.

I am 23 years old, and have recently suffered from constant ovarian cysts. I have had several surgeries to remove them and it's been exhausting. 
The one this year didn't bring me the news I was expecting. The surgeons thought it was bowel cancer due to a cell from the bowel found malignant inside the cyst.

I was sent for scans and it came back clear. However now they believe it's in my ovary/Cervix. I've been referred on to a specialist with the aim to do a hysterectomy within 4 weeks.

Im struggling at the moment to remain positive. I find it hard to express my feelings. I have a very supportive family but feel I can't talk to them. I want to stay strong.

My boyfriend is acting "normal" around me. I feel it's a taboo subject. The subject of me not being able to carry children is difficult to approach. And he seems to be agreeing with everything I say rather than having his own opinion. 
 

I wondered if there was anyone who has been attending any support groups or befriended people who have a diagnosis of their own? 
I would like to be able to speak to others and support others. 
 

Thank you.
