So I got my results

[cornerofmadness]

And yeah I have endometrial cancer. Not really the diagnosis anyone wants. The good news is a) mirena iud's can slow it down (already placed) b) it's grade 1 which is the beginning stages.

So the move here is a complete hysterectomy. I wanted a moment to look over my choices a) pittsburgh which has some of the best medical in the country b) columbus and the James c) huntington and the edward. After saying that she comes up with btw you need to go back every 3 months for 2 years then every 6 months for 5 years.

Sorry to make you come back so much. I look at her and say I see endocrinology every 3 months for 20 years now, I'm fine with it.

But that probably means The Edward cancer center because I can keep running to Pittsburgh and Columbus is a pain in my ass. The James is associated with OSU's medical school and The Edward is with Marshall and I think either will be good.

I have to see the oncologist first and hopefully there is no spread into the nodes and I choose to believe it has not until we learn otherwise. I'll let you k now when I have to have the surgery

thanks

[spikedluv]

I'm so sorry it turned out to be the worst case. I'll be sending positive thoughts into the universe for you.

[cornerofmadness]

thank you

[sylvanwitch]

Oh, man, that sucks, and I’m so sorry you have to go through all that. I’m glad they caught it early, though; the survival rates are really good! And while the reason for the hysterectomy is not good, I know it’s something you wanted. I only wish they’d have let you have one sooner. *hugs*

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks and yeah it has a decent survival rate.

to be fair she's wanted me to have this for a few years now but 2020 was out, 2021 the injury to my leg and last year I had other things and now we're here

[angelofthenorth]

Much love from someone who is at the pre-cancer stage. Thinking of you.

[cornerofmadness]

thank you and good luck to you too

[mdlbear]

Best of luck to you! Welcome to one of those exclusive clubs that nobody wants to join.

(I got my prostate cancer diagnosis two weeks ago today.)

[cornerofmadness]

thanks so much. Yes I saw that, sorry to hear it

[keli]

I am so sorry to hear that. Darn it all. Sounds like you caught it early though! Sending lots of prayers and positive thoughts your way! *hugs*

[cornerofmadness]

thank you

[ysilme]

Oh shit, that's indeed news nobody wants or needs. You really could have been spared this! ***tight, fierce, hugs***
But having caught it early is important, and your general approach towards health stuff will doubtlessly get you the best possible care as quickly as possible.
Sending tons of energy, healing vibes and prayers! ♥♥♥

I've been through a pre-cancerous stage of this eleven years ago, caught very early and successfully dealt with by hormonal treatment (plus additional holisitc treatment as my gyn is also doing that, since there was no other regular treatment for this stage), and I got off with just three months of hormone-induced misery but no surgery, and nothing else since. I'm sure the positive energy of that must be good for something, so have it all! ***hugs***

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks I appreciate it so much.

Sorry you had to deal with the pre-cancerous stage as well. The hormones from the IUD are supposed to help which is why they placed it.

::hugs you tight::

I haven't been on here in months but I'm glad I logged in today to offer my support. This really sucks. Let me know if you need anything.

[cornerofmadness]

Thank you so very much. I appreciate it

[suzume]

Hey, I managed to beat brain cancer! You can certainly beat endometrial cancer!

[cornerofmadness]

I'm certainly hoping you're right. I have the advantage of them being able to cut out the offending organ. Yours was far more terrifying

[suzume]

Yes! Yes you will! And I'll be praying for you too!

[cornerofmadness]

Thank you very much

[under_the_silk_tree]

I'm so sorry that these are your results. I will be praying for you to have the best possible outcome. *hugs*

thank you

[fauxklore]

I'm sorry you're facing this. I wish you all the best with your treatment(s).

[cornerofmadness]

Thanks so much

[aien_hime]

Oh no! I'm glad to see they caught it early and I hope you make a full recovery. Good luck with the entire journey dear.
