Hello community,

I hope you are all well and coping. I’m here for any advice please as we navigate the rocky road ahead.

My mum (63, very fit and well) was diagnosed with ovarian cancer 1st Nov and had total hysterectomy, lymph, appendix & omentum removed yesterday. We have 3-4 weeks for pathology on the “complex cyst” they removed but obviously with the op as extensive as it was, we’re expecting we’re in for a bumpier ride than we hoped.

While we don’t yet know what we’re looking at, and we don’t yet have a treatment plan, I’ve been doing a fair bit of research into high dose IV Vit C as it appears to lessen the nastier effects of chemo. Does anyone have any experience of this?

Due to meet with her surgeon today, aware there are some weeks of waiting ahead but just trying to arm myself with as much as possible in the meantime.

Thanks so much
