Thank you for your response. Since I posted this, I have found out that I have stage one cervical cancer but I also have a tumor. It’s either a pituitary tumor or an adrenal gland tumor but it’s causing my testosterone to be 632 and for women, it’s supposed to be 50 and below, so I’m going through quite a lot right now and I don’t know how to handle all of this. My son has already lost his dad. I just got to stay positive and be strong.

I bet you are going through a lot right now. You must be so worried for yourself and, of course, for your son. I'm tagging fellow members like @cancerback @mmchap2120 @margitdill who have walked this path before you and have experience with cervical cancer.

As you go through this diagnostic process, you might appreciate getting a referral to a social worker specializing in cancer. Here's more information:

@hlittle5479, as you support your son, who is there for you? Do you have a circle of supporters?
