Endometriosis cancer primary now in the peritineal

i has a hysterectomy 18 months ago due to endometriosis cancer stage 1A.  I was given the all clear.  I recently noticed a nodule in my belly button but had no symptoms so the doctor thought it might’ve scar tissue from my surgery or an hernia.   I was devastedti learn it was grade 3 peritential cancer. I have tried hormone tablets for the last 6weeks hoping it may reduce or stop tumours from getting any bigger but this weeks results have show the rumours have grown.  My doctor wants to move quickly with chemo now.

 

is there anyone out there who has had similar.  I was told by the doctor even though I am well 24 months might be all I get!  I need sum positive feedback. 

 

  • Hi there ...   Sorry I can't help with question as I'm a breast lass ... But saw there was no one here at the moment with that ... But a few on here were given a time and they are pushing the boundaries every day ... So hold on in there ...fingers crossed for your chemo to help ... Hope you get someone along soon to give you the answers you want ...

    Sending you a big hug ... Chrissie x

  • Hi Jayjay,

    Like Chriss I hope it's not annoying that I'm replying even though I'm not in your boat.  I'm a breast cancer woman but have suffered for years with endometriosis (just explaining why your post drew my attention).

    I'm sure someone will come on at some point with the same type of cancer but just wanted you to know others are out here dealing with the whole cancer thing and wishing you all the best!

    Keep fighting!
