Hi,
I have recently started my external radiotherapy (2nd Nov) and the combined Cisplatin chemotherapy started yesterday, following a radical hysterectomy which confirmed FIGO stage IIIC1 cervical cancer.
Initially I was fine but last night I started having twinges of pain inside my vagina, which feel a bit sore. They passed during the day today but now they seem to be back. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
Thanks,
Lulabell
Hi Lulabell
It’s good to see your treatment has started and I hope it will go smoothly for you. I had side effects, but not the pains you describe. If some of the other ladies have had this I hope they’ll be able to share their experiences. I’d mention it to your team for reassurance if you can. Do you need to take painkillers to deal with it? It’s always good to mention anything like this to the doctors treating you to see if they can help.
