Welcome to the forum Zane although I'm sorry to read you've been diagnosed with cervical cancer.
I know you're looking for others who have had this diagnosis or had treatment for cervical cancer so I've had a quick look around the forum and wanted to put you in touch with [@LauraP], [@Limesbabe], [@Sarah2b] and [@Mich1968]. They've all been through this process and may be able to help answer any questions you may have so now I've tagged them in this post some of them will hopefully pop by when they can to say hello and share their experiences with you.
Kind regards,

Hi Zane,
I had stage 2A cervical cancer 5 years ago. I had chemo and radiation but did not have any surgeries. Your treatment will depend on what stage you are at. My treatment was bearable, I just got really tired and had some stomach and bowel issues during but that got better after some time passed. Please let us know what you find out and if you have any questions, I'd be glad to answer if I can.

Hi
i had cervical cancer 2b finished treatment last August , as Laura said it will all depend on what stage your at .
i had 5 chemotherapy, 25 radiotherapy and 3 brachytherapy’s . Treatment was alright, I got tired, I also had tummy and bowel problems during treatment but got better as time went on. But I do have some side effect that maybe long term.

Hi there, im new to this chat but saw your post about side effects and long term side effects. I am about to start 25 radiotherapies and brachytherapy and am worried about side effects. Would you mind telling me about your experience. Any advice / info appreciated. Thank you.
