hi saadinmj.

i am so sad to hear about your mother, it must be a worrying time for you. Are you here in england?? If so you could telephone the helpline and talk to one of the nurses about your her. I am sure they are used to talking to people whos first language is not english.

But if you are in pakistan that would be too expensive and i am sure people will be along on this forum soon to help.

I dont know if one of the live chat rooms will be of use to you. You can email the organisors on <script type=“text/javascript”>eval(unescape(‘%64%6f%63%75%6d%65%6e%74%2e%77%72%69%74%65%28%27%3c%61%20%68%72%65%66%3d%22%6d%61%69%6c%74%6f%3a%6d%6f%64%65%72%61%74%6f%72%40%62%72%65%61%73%74%63%61%6e%63%65%72%63%61%72%65%2e%6f%72%67%2e%75%6b%22%3e%6d%6f%64%65%72%61%74%6f%72%40%62%72%65%61%73%74%63%61%6e%63%65%72%63%61%72%65%2e%6f%72%67%2e%75%6b%3c%2f%61%3e%27%29%3b’))</script>. There you can ask questions about secondary cancer live on line.

Hi saadinmj, so sorry to hear about your mum, it will be a very worrying time for you, I cant offer you any advice but please keep coming on this site and someone will be along to give you some advice soon, the helpline is very good. Hugs to you and your mum love junieliz

Dear Saadinmj,
So sorry to hear of your sadness about your mother.
It seems a good idea to send an email to the Helpline as phoning might be very expensive.
Does your mother has access to advice about Lymphoedema- concerning the swelling of her arm?
Quite a few of the people who post here do and they give very helpful advice about what they do.
I will try to find a thread for you about this.
Sorry but I do not understand one bit of your message about pubs (?) around her neck and chest,can you try to write that in other words?
What do the doctors say about her weakness?
best wishes
Lavender

i thought pubs were localised swellings-abit like boils-but i could be wrong

Here is one of the posts/messages mentioning exercises for lymphoedema-you could ask your nmother’s doctors if this was suitable for her, perhaps
