Hi

I’m wondering if anyone has any experience of womb cancer spreading to somewhere in the body (in my case - a tumour in the soft tissue near my jaw) that isn’t an organ?

I am still in the midst of diagnosis confirmation but after a cancerous tumour was discovered in my face a PET scan revealed that I have cancer in my womb.


I am awaiting an MRI on my pelvis for more details. I’m struggling to find out what stage my womb cancer is as all information describes the cancer as metastasising to other organs in the body. 

I need information to calm my mind! Hope someone can offer some. X

    Hi  ,

    I can see you've not yet had a reply, I would imagine your situation is quite rare. My cancer had spread to bone and lung but I've had treatment and I'm currently well. The waiting for results is awful as our minds are all over the place. We as a group are not medical so can't answer your question but it might be worth ringing the Macmillan phone lines, they are very helpful and it may be that you can speak to a nurse/ask an expert. Good luck for your results,
