Hello....I am new to this site. I may not post often, I don't know if it helps talking in this type of forum.

I was diagnosed on Dec 18 with early stage of squamous cell cancer, but when I saw my oncologist on Jan 15, she said it was not Stage 1.

So, 3 days ago, I had a radical hemi vulvectomy with both lymphnodes removed.

I was in the hospital for 2 nights and am now home. I walked inside the house today to the distance of approximately .60km!

Next step is waiting to see if they got enough margins with the incision.

Trying not to go on the Internet too much because, quite frankly, most of the sites freak me out!

Blessings to All...

Hi ladies

Seen surgeon this morning and will be home today still a way to go as need to wait for biopsy results to make sure margins are clear and 4 weeks till lymph nodes surgery and of course further waiting for results. Feeling much better and more positive and I could not of come this far without the support and care of the people on this forum. Positive vibes, hello, thanks for chatting, I really do feel that a problem shared is a problem halved it has been one of the scariest times in my life and my journey is only beginning but I truly believe that my journey so far would of been a lot harder had I tried to do this on my own. There is a lot of positive information on the Internet BUT there is also a lot of negative and I too was googling like mad to try to find out more and it scared the living day lights out of me so I too would say limit what you read, you are not a statistic, you are an individual and with the right support and medical team anything is possible. I agree, the waiting is the hardest part but try and stay positive and do chat to the ladies here as the support and sharing is what keeps you sane! Xxx

Hi ladies I would love to hear how you are all getting on, I am having investigations at the moment and there isn't much reassuring information out there I can find

Hi Sarah,

sorry I have just seen this msg. I had a biopsy and the results came back as "HPV changes" my dr isn't worried, she will keep an eye on it, she says hpv often clears on its own. I still occasionally have discomfort down there, it's really sensitive skin so things aren't completely sorted.

how did you get on? Xx
