Endometrial cancer

Hello everyone - world turned upside down with a diagnosis of cancer in womb yesterday. Only went to see GP a week ago about water infection and scan yesterday revealed otherwise. Op arranged in 10 days time so all happening incredibly fast and I’m a bit she’ll shocked and I know I haven’t listened properly to GP etc about what is going to happen so I’m consulting Dr Google which is a stupid thing to do. If anyone has had endometrial cancer post menopause I would appreciate any information especially if it is known to spread. Thank you

    hi Laney, After assuming my symptoms were just my other medical conditions getting worse :- i also have ME / CFS/ FM/ lower back issues etc, after ultasound scan and tests ,i too have just had diagnosis of endometrial cancer, was told things need to happen quickly.  Have been waiting a week now for MRI to see if its spread to pelvis or not -, the results of the MRI  will depend on which hospital i have the surgery.   Was told that i should be having  treatment within four weeks, but one week already gone.  As you say , things are then gonna move very quickly.   Need to know whats going on and where i stand.  Our lives are at stake here . To note , i am 47 and pre-menopausal.  Take care,
