Re: BC Mets to Uterus - Roller Coaster Ride

Wow, that is alot to deal with.

I remember I had been scared to death at that time as I had a pelvic ultrasound and an endometrial biopsy right after your news. I felt like I dodged a bullet when I got the all clear.

I just don't understand why they didn't remove the uterus. Crazy. Well, people have bladder cancer and they remove the entire bladder. Your cancer hasn't gotten to the bladder.

I don't like that your two medical advisors are so far apart. Eager to hear the news of your second opinion.

I'm so sorry about all the awful side effects. I hope that you find a solution that works better for you.

Sending love and healing!
