Hi liz. I hope you are feeling well now. Sorry to message on an old ish thread. Can I ask how you were diagnosed with endo cancer ?

thanks xx

Hi reading your response. Did u have clear margins after the lletz removal? I've just been diagnosed 1b1 and they removed a 1cm tumour but not clear margins so have to have radical hysterectony including ovaries,lymph nodes and 2cm of vaginal wall. Have got mri and ct scans next week which fingers crossed is all clear. Wondered how the op went,only time ive been to theatre was for lletz. Nervous but more so about the scans. 

Hi Sharon,

As someone who has had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the last 9 years, I just want to assure you that there is nothing to worry about with your scans. You lie on a table and go back and forth through a tunnel type machine for the MRI. There are different sized machines. If you are large and get a small machine, it can be a bit claustrephobic. There is also a lot of clunking as the machine takes pictures of different areas. There is no problem with a larger machine. They can play music for you if you find the noise too much. The CT is a lot less claustrephobic, although it can also be a bit clunky at times,  but they can both play an important part in diagnosis.

Have you got a date for your scans or your hysterectomy yet? I hope that all goes well for you. You are just as well to go in again if you haven't got clear margins. I did not have clear margins after my lumpectomy, although my surgeon assured me that he had noticed this and had taken another slither. I was told that I had mucosal cancer, which is not a very aggressive form, but it grew back in the same breast within a year. Second time around I had a double mastectomy, done by a different surgeon and, I've never looked back.

We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Hi Kate,

A very warm welcome to our forum.

I have just replied because I note that nobody has answered your question yet. I am afraid that I am a breast cancer lady and don't know anything about endo cancer. Do you have this?

You may find that, with this being an oldish thread, the people who wrote the posts above, may not come on to the site all that often.

Can I suggest that you go to the blue banner at the top of this page? Insert endo cancer in the search box and click. This will bring up previous posts on this topic and you may find it easier to get a reply from some of these other posters.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Hi Angie

sorry to hear about your radical hysterectomy. It seems we might have had ours at the sane time. Mine was in the 2ndJan. Did you have everything removed (uterus, Fallopian tubes, ovaries cervix and nodes? 
when you say sharp pains where are these? I would definitely recommend that you let your medical team know if you are getting sharp pains post surgery. I am not in any pain but occasionally feel pressure on the abdomen and usually a couple of paracetamol does the trick.

I wish you well and hope that your everything from here is positive.
