Vulvar Cancer: Anyone else?

I have squamous cell vaginal cancer due to HPV. In 1995 I had a total abdominal hysterectomy due to HPV…. And it’s back.
Surgery is not an option as the tumor abuts my urethra and there is not enough tissue to obtain clear margins. Don’t want a permanent urostomy bag, so I have an appointment April 25 with radiation oncology to discuss radiation and chemotherapy and chemoradiation. Possibly 6 weeks….

@leahchawkins thinking of you as you prepare for your appointment tomorrow. I'll be interested to hear what treatment options will be available for you.

@leahchawkins I somehow missed your post of last week that you have an appointment coming up tomorrow in radiation oncology. I'll be thinking about you tomorrow. I am hoping that the appointment helps you figure out the approach that will work the best for you in your life. I realize these are very big decisions.
