Hello @manchesterlady2

I am so glad that you joined Mayo Clinic Connect. Your anxiety over a possible cancer recurrence is very common. Many of us who have had more than one cancer diagnosis live in fear of the next one.

I am so happy to hear that you were willing to try counseling It really helps to talk about these fears. If your hospital system has a social worker on staff, he or she might also be able to assist you with these worries.

Mayo Connect has a support group for gynecological cancers that you might find helpful. Here is the link to those discussions, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/gynecologic-cancer/tab/discussions/. If you read through the list of discussions, you will see that are several discussions related to ovarian cancer.

Mayo Clinic also has a monthly online support group for women with gynecological cancer. Since it is online, Zoom, you don't have to leave your home in order to attend. The next meeting is on October 11. Here is more information, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/event/gynecological-cancer-support-group-105/

Have you begun counseling yet?
