Does anyone else have stage 3 vaginal cancer?

Hi there, 

I have stage 3 vaginal cancer, I have had radiotherapy, chemotherapy and brachytherapy. I am now awaiting the results. 
 

anyone else going through it too? 

  • Hello Dayo78 and welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    I hope you won't need to wait too long for your results and that your radiotherapy, chemotherapy and brachytherapy treatments have gone well. I thought I would share with you this page on vaginal cancer which I hope will be useful to you and that it will shed some light on questions you may have about treatment for example. If you ever felt the need to talk things through with one of our nurses, you can ring our nurse helpline on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

    You have come to the right place to meet other ladies who have been affected by stage 3 vaginal cancer and I hope that they will be along shortly to share their experience with you. I had a little look on the forum for you and found this recent thread by [@lauras]‍ who has been diagnosed with stage 1 vaginal cancer and may be a great person for you to connect with and chat to. 

    Best wishes and fingers crossed for your results!

  • Hi there 

    hope your well I had stage 1 vaginal cancer, was diagnosed in January this year I have had chemotherapy/radiotherapy but not brachytherapy... my cancer was very small I had it removed but just incase there was small bits that the eye couldn't see I had treatment to be on the safe side, I had an mri last month and on the first of this month there was no visable evidence so that was good to hear I have to have a speculum examination and then another mri in 6 months! 
     

    how you finding things after treatment hope your ok here to answer anything! Xxxxx
