Hello all,

I was diagnosed with stage 3 cervical cancer in October 2024 (aged 49). I was treated for this and was hoping to make a full recovery. 
However, in April this year, I had a few days when I started loosing words, and couldn’t finish sentences. I was advised to go to A&E.

After the necessary scans, the dr told me that the cancer had spread to the brain - I had several brain lesions. 
I had Gamma Knife treatment (a type of radiotherapy) on 6 brain lesions.

I am now on palliative treatment (chemotherapy, target therapy and immunotherapy). The cancer is also in pelvic lymph nodes, kidneys and hip bone.

    I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I'm not a member of this group, I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.

    If you don't get any replies here, it might be an idea to also post this question in the cervical cancer group, which I can see you're a member of, as there may be ladies there with secondaries.

    ((hugs))
