Hi Anniee here,
I had Anterior Vulvectomy on 4th April so in week 3 of recovery but have been hit with devistating news that all was not removed. The squamas cells have gone 4mm into the "wall". My surgeon said I would require 5 wks if radium treatment every day, but since speaking with the Marsden London, they have said they prefer scan to check lymph glands and possibly remove any infected glands. I was told this just two days ago but to date have received no contact from the Marsden.
I know I am expecting the wheels to turn quickly, but has anyone else had this form of treatment and do you know any time scales.
Thank you.
