Hello, I had an appointment at the Christie on Tuesday, 3 weeks post op check and to receive my histology report, found recovering from the hysterectomy easier than I expected, unfortunately I was staged 1A serous pre op, and now they have told me a few cells have escaped into my fallopian tube which now means my grade is 3A. I was very upset at the time but I’m clinging on to the fact they told me my lymph nodes and everywhere else is clear, my MRI and CT and mammogram show no spread into other organs. I will need chemo radiotherapy and brachytherapy. My surgeon said consider yourself cancer free we got it all, this is a preventive measure to stop it coming back and with serous type cancer it’s rare and aggressive, you can live for many years and beat it. I battled breast cancer 13 and 11 years ago so I know I can do this, sadly I also know how hard it can be. Im just extremely sad feel lonely but I’m ready and each day I feel more positive, they want me to heal a little longer. I should get another appointment in a week or so, good luck to all you lovely ladies x
Hi Holly- I had adjuvant chemo and radiotherapy- although not any brachytherapy. Chemo was May to August. Radio was August/September. This week i had my first post treatment check up and all is fine. Before treatment it felt an impossible journey but once treatment started it went quicker than expected. Reach out to people on here- we have all been there. Good luck with your treatment
It was tough at times but it was doable. There were times where there were wobbles but at those times reach out to others. Feel free to message me at anytime or post on here- I found the ladies on here invaluable
