Hi I'm Kate I have just found out that I've caner in the womb ,cervix and my ovaries , I'm only 35 years old but I've 3 beautiful girls but the doctors are saying that I need to have a full hysterectomy and I'm very worried and scared.
I'm sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis. It's obviously an incredibly difficult time for you and it's understandable that you're feeling scared and worried about the surgery and any next steps.
We've a number of women here who have been through treatment for different female cancer. I know that our lovely [@Minska] has had cervical cancer and underwent a hysterectomy as well as having additional treatments. I've tagged her in and I'm sure that she will pop along to say Hello! and share her experiences with you.
I'd really encourage you to give our team of nurses a call as well Kate. It helps to talk things through at times like this and I'm sure they will be able to offer advice and support ahead of your surgery. They're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040.
Hopefully, you won't have to wait too long for your surgery. Keep in touch and let us know how you're getting on.
I’m so sorry to hear of your diagnosis-it’s quite overwhelming at the start. It’s only natural to be scared when facing surgery after finding out you have cancer and it’s a lot to take on board. As Jenn said, I have had cervical cancer and I’m happy to offer support and help to you if I can. Please do keep in touch if you’d like to. This is a lovely community of supportive people who know what this feels like.
