New to this this forum although I have used the forums before as my husband had stage 2 tonsil cancer in lockdown (has the all clear now) and found it in a way reassuring. Trying not to turn this into a monologue.
I've been bleeding since July last year (already gone thru menopause and too old to be having periods), had a total hysterectomy in Jan (one month ago so still off work recovering, sailed thru that and have healed really well) yesterday had follow up gyne...I knew, when you hear the sentence 'you can bring someone with you' as had heard that previously with hubby. Nothing picked up in earlier hysteroscopy (wow that is painful) but they biopsy everything when they do hysterectomy. Gynecologist advised rare ovarian cancer found in left ovary and small amount in uterus and has booked MRI & CT scan for thursday so he can
get it to team meeting before friday. I did enquire if it would be chemo and he said he thinks would be radio or hormone treatment as everything has been done backwards (hysterectomy has already been done) Don't know what stage as no results or oncology appointment yet. I have grown up children but myself and hubby have decided not tell them until after Monday as no treatments confirmed yet. Think the gynecologist was surprised I didn't break down and I listened intensely and had questions (but as I've said I've already been in this situation and hubby said when it was him as soon as he heard the word cancer he switched off from the rest of conversation, I used to take notes). I'll keep updating as the journey begins but for me personally the hardest bit is telling the kids.️
Hiya I'm really sorry to hear ur story I have the same and I'm under the Royal Marsden hospital in Chelsea..
I really hope and pray for u telling the kids I no its the worst feeling in the world telling ur kids mine are still very young and don't really understand .. but its hard I'm with u on that one 
Just remember that ur kids love u and they are gonna be there no matter wot life throws at u and ur hubby ur kids will pick u up and pull u though it ..
I'm hear if u ever wanna chat . And stay strong 
ur not alone
We got this 
Hey hun . I'm really sorry to hear this news . I really hope today's appointment goes well . Your in safe hands . It's soo sad that it has come back knocking on the door again!!! why why why!!!! . Just remember you are strong and you will kick cancer back and show it who's boss . Doctors always think we know more then we do and it's so hard to understand the terms how they speak about sarcoma cancer why can they not just tell us in a way that we understand more .. ask as many questions today I don't no what time your appointment is but you got this and let me no how you get along please. I will be thinking of you hun and you no I'm always here if you need a chat. I'm in the Royal Marsden on the 2nd of June if your there I can always come see you for a chat . X
