Hi all, i just wanted to share my experience with you all. 8 weeks ago i was diagnosed with womb cancer. I am 47 and 2years post menopausal. After numerous visits to my doctor telling them them something wasn’t right they eventually listened and sent me for a scan. The scan showed something on my womb and 2 weeks later after a biopsy it was confirmed as womb cancer. 3 weeks ago today i had a total hysterectomy and today i had my post op. Great news, they confirmed that all the signs show that the cancer was confined to the womb. I just wanted to say that after 8 weeks of crying, being angry and scared i feel like i have been lucky. Lucky that if I hadn’t pestered my doctor they may never have found it and my story could be a whole lot different. I had no signs apart from tiredness and the odd bleed which was not unusual during my menopause. I am recovering well and i cannot thank the hospital staff enough. They have all been amazing. Thank god for the nhs!
That's really good news that it was confined and well done you for pestering your dr when you felt something wasn't right. Glad that you are recovering well and thanks for sharing good news..Vanessa
