Has anyone had this?

  • Yes, I have. I had this surgery in October last year and it was successful in removing all but a tiny bit of tumour which was zapped by further chemotherapy. 

  • Reassuring thank you Blush recovering from first op and being offered second, will find out if straightaway or if chemo first next week. Just been coming to terms with it x

  • Hi, yes I have just had this surgery three weeks ago. It was a success and I’m healing really well. They removed all visible cancer which included two cysts a tumour and nodules in different places as well as a radical hysterectomy. I don’t know if anyones said this to you but just make sure you take into hospital plenty of long nighties and very very loose pants your incision might be bigger than what you first think and anything peppermint, mints, tea bags it helps with the wind pain. I also took some snacks in like crisp, chocolate and cordial it helps if your appetites abit off. Good luck xx
