I was diagnosed with clear cell endometrial cancer in September 2023. I’ve had a hysterectomy, chemo, 25 radaiations, 2 brachytherapy (that was mentally and physically the worst to be strapped down while being painfully ripped open) ( anyone else have such a bad experience with brachytherapy?) followed by more chemo. Now I’m being checked every three months to see if it has returned. I’m struggling with being grateful to be cancer free for the last two and a half months and trying to prepare myself for the likely reality it will be coming back. I want to be excited about life but don’t want to be crushed when it returns.

Hello teechur, I am sorry you’re struggling, but glad to hear you are done the treatments. I am very grateful to be three years cancer free after my stage three clear cell uterine diagnosis. I also had chemo radiation and brachytherapy. I am not sure what you have been told and I hear a lot of people on the Facebook group expecting it to return. I know it has a higher rate than other cancers of returning, but there are many ladies who are doing well, even after quite some time. I am doing my best to stay positive but no, it is very scary and worrisome. I also found it helpful to speak with the counselor at the center where I was treated. Please let me know how I can support you.
