Hi all,

Hoping someone can help me.

My mum was diagnosed with womb cancer in November. At that point the doc was confident a hysterectomy would remove the cancer so this was carried out just a few weeks after.

She then underwent a scan on her lungs just as a precaution, but told not to worry as they hadn't seen anything to cause concern.

Today she got a phonecall to say that she has a rare and aggressive form of ESS and although they are confident they removed it at the time, it's highly likely it will return. Also confirmed that should it indeed come back there are no treatment options available, the doctor doesn't feel there is any point due to its aggressive nature.

Obviously this is a massive shock and feels very "final" 

Has anyone has any experience around this? Feel helpless at the moment. She's become very depressed and can't get her mind off the thought she may not be with us much longer.

She also has very bad nerve pain that occurred around 2 weeks after the op and seems to be getting worse daily. She's been on to the doctor but to be honest they just fob her off with tablets.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Dean
