Hello, everyone.

I’m currently 2 weeks post OP (midline laparotomy) and currently recovering. I’m diagnosed with high grade EC but staging still not known. I had ovarian mets from my EC so I’m guessing I would at least be Stage 3.

Feeling quite low right now and scared, even though I know I should be focusing on getting better so I could start chemo/radio as healthy as possible.

I guess I want to reach out to anyone here who has similar diagnosis and not feel alone.

Hi Ange19!

Thank you for sharing your story with me. It sounds like you didn’t have much side effects from chemo/radio which is what I’m hoping for myself! I have heard of the cold cap but I am not too bothered with my hair falling out. I guess I’ll see if they offer it in my treatment centre.

Glad to hear that your return to work has been a success. Honestly, it is the one thing I am looking forward to after treatments. It’s helping me try to stay positive about chemo/radio. I feel like if I don’t start working again, I would be depressed and feel a whole lot of things that are not so happy thoughts I suppose.
