I did not have a biopsy taken at 6 or 12 months, my next check up is in September, in fact they checked very little, I was surprised by how little they checked. Not sure on anyone else's experiences with check ups after a total hysterectomy for womb cancer. Only thing they checked was a blood test at 6 weeks post op, and at 12 month's.
Hi Leilana23
Thank you for your responce, i had a full hysterectomy last november leaving my ovaries as a few yrs ago i had stage 1a1 but it was removed via a lletz, i got offered a hysterectomy because i had finished my family so i had a think, i found out my mom had cervical cancer and sadly passed away nearly 2 yrs ago now so i made my decision and went for it.
But yesterday i had a smear and a biopsy i just thought this was a normal procedure, im trying not to worry as it may just be nothing but its hard not to think about it.
Thank you again

It might well be in your case, it's the dreaded wait and see, it's good that they are being thorough, I hope all is well
