@tdfraze Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and our Gynecological Cancers Support Group. I was diagnosed with endometroid adenocarcinoma FIGO Grade 1, Stage 1a in 2019. In 2019 I had a radical hysterectomy with additional removal of ovaries, fallopian tubes, and cervix. I did not have any other treatment at that time. No radiation therapy or chemotherapy. I had a recurrence in 2021 found by physical exam by my nurse practitioner. I then had 5 weeks of external radiation therapy and 2 sessions of brachytherapy. I have had no recurrences since then or any evidence of disease.

When were you diagnosed and what treatment have you had or what is planned. How are you feeling?
