Hi everyone. Just reaching out as I’m getting terribly anxious about my hysterectomy next week. I’m already booked in even though full histology isn’t yet back as my oncologist could see what he needed on MRI, CT and Vaginal ultrasound. Have also now had a hysteroscopy under GA and will see my consultant again next week before the op to tell me what type/grade etc. I’m so scared. Even without full histology I’m booked in for a ‘radical hysterectomy’ plus tubes and ovaries to be removed. I had breast cancer 8 years ago for which I went through surgery, chemo and radiotherapy so this feels like such a knock back. I’m trying to keep positive but my mind keeps spiralling, particularly if I need to have chemo again. I know I’ve just got to hold tight and wait to see my consultant (the MDT meeting is tomorrow when they will discuss my case). Hysteroscopy notes state ‘very abnormal cavity’ with signs of masses and pyometra. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I’m very glad to have found this forum. I’m 57 and a mother of 4 adult children.
