Newly diagnosed stage 1 womb cancer

RSA
Offline

Hi All

I am recently diagnosed with stage 1 womb cancer at 57.

A hysteroscopy biospsy identified this and I also have a lesion on my ovary that needs a urgent MRI

Since then, a week and a half ago I have heard nothing, I have no idea how long an urgent MRI takes or when treatment will start (I am told I will likley need a hysterectomy)

Any guidance appreciated , still feeling very confused and no idea what happens next, I am based in Yorkshire.

    I have just today been diagnosed with endometrial cancer after hysteroscopy on 29 August.  I have an appintment to discuss tomorrow and MRI was requested also for tomorrow.  No idea of staging yet, until after scan.  MDT discussing my case for staging this coming Friday.  I am 66.  I am worried as will likely need hysterectomy and other treatments.  I am sure you will hear soon.  Best wishes

    I was diagnosed yesterday after a positive hysteroscopy and removal of polyps. I am 56 and very worried. Waiting for MRI appt. It’s so hard.

    It is very hard and a burden to bear whilst waiting.  I had my MRI and CT scan and thankfully it is very early stage 1a.  I am meeting my consultant who will carry out a robotic laparoscopic hysterectomy in the coming weeks.  The high-grade serous carcinoma is thankfully contained within the womb eith no spread.  I am so grateful and relieved.  Not looking forward to surgery, but trust I am in good hands.  I wish the wait will soon be over and you too get some relief with the best outcome.  Best wishes

    Got the results of my MRI - I am also in the scenario that’s it’s contained as far as they know. I am also booked in for a robotic laparoscopy hysterectomy and ovary removal. Best Wishes to you too
