Went for the results of my CT scan to be told there was a nodule still and I would be monitored. I saw the large melon size one on the right hand side and another about the size of a penny on the left hand side when they were doing my ultra sound scan. I understood both ovaries and tubes were being taken out........................... so where is this nodule. Why didnt they take it out when they had me on the operating table.
I am completely shocked and bewildered. They weren't going to give me the last chemo so I took this as a sure sign that all was well. I have to go for a blood test in January. Now I will be worried all the time about this nodule - why couldnt they have taken it our!
Why wasn't I told about this nodule. I was offered Carboplatin +/- Taxol. I would definitely have had the Taxol if I had known about the nodule. The oncologist recommended just the Carboplatin as there was no sign of spreading or cancer cells in the wash.
