Hi,
I’m Sarah, I’m 25 and I was diagnosed with stage 3 uterine cancer this year. To be specific, I have low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma but it behaves similarly to high grade.
this year I have undergone three major surgeries to remove my uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes and ovaries as well as some cancerous deposits on my bowel serosa and peritoneum.
i have been consistently let down by the NHS in my journey over the past year and even still, despite giving me NED status 2 months ago, three weeks ago they called and told me that they’d misread the radiology report. I’ve had further scans now and the radiologists be.ieve the tissue to look benign but my surgeons are unsure.
i am working so hard on being positive, living my life and just carrying on until the next bout of scanxiety hits in January but it’s bloody hard. How do you cope? How do you remain positive and stop feeling woe is me?
thank you for reading xx
