So, I'm feeling quite deflated today and a bit upset. Also feeling silly cause I know I should be happy that my stage is now 1A2 and having a hysterectomy instead of chemoradiation, and I AM happy and I know I'm lucky. But ...  I feel like because everyone thought I was stage 2 and now I'm 'only' stage 1, everyone's just so happy that I just need to have a surgery. Like I said, I am too but feeling really alone in my feelings that i still have to go through a major surgery, having a hysterectomy is not nothing.

Anyway, just needed to vent a little and think getting it out might help x

I understand how you feel,  I was  1a grade 3, I had to have 5 brachytherapy but felt like people made it so un important once didn’t need chemo, no one truelly understands how u feel inside, ur thoughts or feelings, only people that are going through it really understand. It’s a scary place to be in. 
Im on my 3 year remission in March and still struggle to get people to understand how I feel..

Hi Mario11

Happy you're in remission but sad to hear ppl still don't understand how you feel. Brachytherapy is a big deal.

Thank you for responding, it does make me feel less alone and I hope you know you aren't alone too. Glad to have the forums as it seems the only place ppl could possibly understand. I'm here if you ever need a chat x

Thank you same back to you..I had the hysterectomy was so much easier then I thought would be. 5 brachytherapy for 10 mins a time was uncomfortable but ok, check ups every 6 months for 5 years, might need a therapist lol but fingers crossed stays ok. Your have good and bad days but if u ever need to talk feel free to message me..
