Thank you, everyone, for sharing your experiences. I had a hysterectomy in March 2025 for UCS Stage 1A and just finished my second round of carbo/taxol with bradytherapy planned after 6 rounds. Aside from anxiety before some events like first CT scan, first MRI, getting the surgery, port in, first chemo, thought of losing hair, and wondering if a fever, rash, or body condition has to do with the cancer, I feel fortunate that after the first week after chemo (days 3-5 I had diarrhea, aching, and shooting pains that meds helped with) my appetite came back and was able to go about a normal routine. I've also been grateful for supportive friends and family (and three dogs), great providers, staff, and people I've met. Keeping focused on the day, looking for inspiration and hope, and finding fulfilling things to do keeps my mind off of the condition.
