Thank you. Surgery was 8.5 hours long (with a total hysterectomy as well). It has been a rough few weeks but things are definitely getting better. I know the neobladder will take patience for the next several months which I was well prepared for. Unfortunately I wasn’t prepared for a pathology report that showed unfavorable results. I know it could be worse but I'm very anxious now about what lies ahead. I'm only six months into this since diagnosis and between chemo and surgery i feel like i need a break already.
