I finally saw the oncology surgeon who did my hysterectomy. It was the first time I saw the surgical report. The tumor remains a grade 1 as I mentioned earlier, but because of the myometrium and stroma invasion the recommended therapy is pretty harsh, I think.
She recommends 8 weeks of radiation (I think beam), 5 days a week, with one day a week of chemo (4-5 hour session) -- just to START. I was floored. I don't understand why all of this is necessary if everything was removed as part of the hysterectomy. Does this sound excessively aggressive?
