Symptoms from radiation/chemo for endometrial cancer? What helps?
Ladies, if you could share your radiation & chemo symptoms and what you did to alleviate them? I’m getting ready for approx five weeks of these treatments for recurring endometrial cancer in upper right vaginal cuff. I’m nearly 5 years from endometrial cancer & complete hysterectomy. Recurrence discovered at physical exam in Sept 2024, followed by CT, Pet scan and biopsy. Pathology showed recurrence of same adenocarcinoma Figo 1, Grade 1 in vaginal cuff. Thank you for your support.

1 ReactionJemperli. My oncologist explained that this particular drug is very receptive to my type of cancer, which sounds like it could be for yours also (but I'm NOT a doctor LOL). I don't want to jinx it, but so far I have no side effects and have received 5 infusions. Wishing you the best of luck in getting the proper treatment. please feel free to communicate with me.
