Post menopausal bleeding. After 15 years of menopause, I started having sporadic sharp pains in my uterine area. I wasn't alarmed, thought it was just gas. Months later, I felt cramping and went to the bathroom, when I wiped blood was there. That was October 2023. Fast forward to Feb 2024...diagnosis stage 2

@rzftoli835 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and to our support group. You were diagnosed just two months ago and I imagine you are still recovering. It took a good 3 - 4 weeks to recover from the hysterectomy. My Gyn Oncologist told me that while I had just a few incisions on my abdomen because the surgery was laparoscopic I still had the same healing inside as if I had open abdominal surgery. Did you have a hysterectomy? What is the follow-up plan? How are you feeling?
