Just diagnosed endometrial cancer

Hi

I have today been told I have endometriod adenocarcinoma grade 1. I am in shock and so scared. I have had symptoms for over 5 months and it has taken time for diagnosis so scared it has spread.

Also scared of hysterectomy as I am a large lady at almost 22 stone. I am scared they wont operate because of my size or that things will go wrong. I am not brave and just dont know how to get through this. I feel life will never be the same again and we had great plans for next year which may now never happen. Any advice or help would be welcome as feel alone and terrified today.

    I am in same situation I was told 3 days ago and I feel sick all the time, I have to hv full hysterectomy and worry it has spread and they won’t be able to save me. I’m waiting my date for hysterectomy but hopefully in next 4 weeks. I’m 17 stone and I was making this my year of health and this happens. I wish us the best,
