Hi! I just came across your post and I wanted to write something that I hope will be reassuring . I was diagnosed with endometrioid adenocarcinoms ( endometrial cancer ) stage 3c back in May 2024. I was 55 years old at diagnosis . This was a complete shock as I never get sick -never even had the flu or Covid ! I had a complete hysterectomy and salpingo oophorectomy -they warned me about this /that before the surgery and afterwards before my 6 rounds of chemo and 5 weeks radiotherapy . Apart from a rash on week one of chemo , my hair thinning a bit( most of it was saved by wearing the cold cap ) , I am now fine . My results have been coming back all normal , energy is as normal , hair now back to normal , feel completely healthy … you can conquer this hurdle ! Stay strong , positive , carry on as normal , do fun things , treat yourself and keep going ! Wishing you all the best xxx

Thank you this was so nice to hear (not the fact that you had to go through that ) that you are so positive after coming through this. I will stay strong and hopefully I will be posting after my treatment is finished. Thank you xx
Hello again, thank you for your lovely reply . Just wanted to check in how you’re doing . I’m having my 3 monthly blood test review in a week and results from my 2 year scan also next week. If you have any questions about anything with the treatment or anything at all , just ask. After chemo and 5 weeks of radiotherapy, I had brachytherapy where they put radiotherapy inside with a machine to more or less where the original site of the endometrial cancer was and although that treatment as a description sounded scary , it actually wasn’t . It came and went and it wasn’t uncomfortable . I called it the deluxe treatment as it’s an extra precaution . Wishing you all the very best xx
