What can I do to help my daughter with Vulva cancer?

Thank you so much for your feedback. What upsets me so much I went onto the Mayo Clinic Website and within 5 minutes found her exact symptoms and diagnoses. She resides in the town of Milton, Ontario. I have asked her what type of cancer she has but is still awaiting a reply. She is not herself. All of this pain medication experimentation is causing her to hallucinate. As soon as I know I will let you know

@abotha5 I so sad as I read this. She must be in a lot of pain. So your daughter is in the Toronto area in southern Ontario? Do you know if she is now seen locally in her town by an oncologist? If so can she get into a major medical center in Toronto to be seen? Or does she have to stay within her region for care and needs a referral to go somewhere else?

In the U.S., we often recommend the National Cancer Institute designated cancer centers. Mayo Clinic is on this list.

Here is a Canadian list by province.

The Princess Margaret Cancer Centre is university-affiliated and keeps coming up.

I am going to tag @colleenyoung as she may have other suggestions for you.

Are you located near your daughter?
