Hi I am 4 weeks past my radical hysterectomy and have just had my historical results last monday when the nurse rang with my results straight after their MDT meeting i couldnt speak at first she told me my results were clear and i was cancer free just waiting on my appt for my surgery update having a few weird feelings in my tummy feeling full and pressure when moving my bowels and heartburn which i have never had before but not really complaining after my great results so thankful for our Drs and nurses and NHS couldnt fault them from my own GP sending me for an urgent cancer referral then within 5 weeks ultrasounds biopsy pre op then surgery just got to recover from my surgery now and so far everything is fine healing well.
Hi zen welcome to the online community but sorry you have had to join us here.
My name is Chelle and I am one of the community champs. I have LGESS which is an endometrial cancer.
That is wonderful news to hear that the histology report is clear after your hysterectomy. For all of this to happen so quickly it must all feel a little surreal. A hysterectomy is a major operation, and where the womb is removed it leaves a void, where your bowels will move to fill that gap. When I had my hysterectomy I felt very uncomfortable for several weeks, and you are still quite early into your recovery. Having said that please do voice any concerns at your next check up. If the pain becomes severe or you get a temperature then call 111.
The online community is made up of cancer specific groups. Can I suggest you join the Womb (uterus) cancer forum where you will meet lots of ladies who have been through a similar situation. If you click on the link I have made it will take you straight to the group. You can make a post and introduce yourself as you have here.
The MacMillan support line is also available 7 days a week from 8am until 8pm on 0808 808 00 00.
