Hello All! Hope everyone is doing well. I’ve finally got a little treatment plan in place. I’m supposed to be having a key hole hysterectomy in about 4 weeks-no date has been given yet and they will also remove the suspicious lymph node at the same time. I guess after that it will be confirmed what stage it’s at. I can’t help but feel really angry that 3 different consultants have given me 3 different statuses on my womb cancer. I’m just feeling on edge as this has felt like such a long process. I’ve never had children so maybe a bit of the anger is also stemming from that. Anyone else felt the same?

Thanks, Rosy xx

Hi Rosy, It’s not surprising you feel angry given the uncertainty you’ve had. Although I’m a Mum I can understand that you’re angry about having the possibility of having children taken away in this way. Sending some gentle hugs your way - I hope you’ll be able to work through these feelings in time. Hope your op goes well x

Hi Rosy,

I understand you getting angry about getting different statuses. It makes you wonder who you can trust, I felt that.

I was initially told stage 1A, then when given my hospital discharge letter after my op, it said 1B. I had to ask the registrar to come back so I could ask, scan report had said 1a,what caused the change. He said no scan was 1b, so it seems different doctors looking at scans and interpreting differently. The path report from examination of what they removed, after the op confirmed 1B.

So it seems the after op analysis is the definitive one.

Not having had children I am sure must make the anger about this part of your body letting you down worse.

Sending hugs, and hoping the best opinion you have had is confirmed x
