Wondering how many of you...
have also had a total hysterectomy as a means of precaution after being
dx. with bc? Does anyone know what the stats are of women who are
dx with bc and then later have problems with a cancer of the cervix, uterus
(not recurrance). I recently had a conversation with a women who had
a total hysterectomy - she had been dx. with bc and had this surgery as a
means of limiting additional cancers. She was menopausal and her cancer
was er +...since I am er+ also, I have been wondering about this.
Please add your two cents....thanks,
Jean
