Hello Everyone, I’m having my op on Tuesday - can’t wait to have it out, quite frankly. What a couple of months it has been, mastectomy and now hysterectomy, you couldn’t make it up! Last week the gynae surgeon said that the breast cancer was almost certainly secondary because the endometrial cancer must have metastasised (which was news to me because the BC consultant told me it was primary, and so I couldn’t be bothered to argue the toss with him!) He also said that I might not have a sarcoma because the biopsy was inconclusive, and if it was, it must be the least aggressive variety. Now I don’t know what to think..so I don’t! I’m sure all be be revealed when it’s removed and studied. I saw the BC consultant the next day (yes, I see both consultants every week, different hospitals) and I told her what he had said. She reiterated that it was a primary cancer, and unrelated to the primary endometrial cancer - apparently they want to do some tests on my DNA etc to see why/how I could have two primary cancers appear simultaneously as it’s very unusual.
Hi Fridgelicker That's not exactly helpful to get conflicting views from consultants.
Wishing you all the best for a speedy recovery, come back and let us know how it goes.
Hugs, Barb xx
