Hi I am new to the group. Just want to say hi . I had womb cancer 2 years ago and had a complete hysterectomy and then preventative radiotherapy. I have been fairly well since then. Im happy to offer advice to anyone who needs it. Im 61 now.
Hi Gib and welcome! Glad to hear you’re doing okay! My op was in January 2022 and I also had adjuvant radiotherapy (and also brachytherapy). What grade and stage were you?
Hi Gib,
Welcome to the womb forum.
I am pleased that you have remained fairly well since your treatment 2 years ago.
My treatment was in 2022- surgery, chemo and radiotherapy- other than some treatment side effects, I am still doing ok. Had 2 years of appointments every 12 weeks for checks and am now on patient led follow up for another year.
Good to have you here.
Jane
Hi. I was told at first I was stage 1a but after my op stage 1b. That's why they recommended radiotherapy. Which was actually brachytherapy. Not a nice thing to go through but if it keeps the cancer at bay then im up for it. While I was going through the treatment I lost my dad suddenly. In fact the last day of my treatment was during his wake. I cried the whole time I was in the hospital and the poor nurses thought it was because of the actual treatment. I couldn't get the words out for ages to tell them about my dad. It was an awful time altogether. I hope you are doing well.
