I'm grade 3 endometrial cancer, radical hysterectomy post radiation (3wks). I push myself a lot, but extremely weak, lots of tingling in my hands feet, here and there elsewhere. Started during radiation,told Dr about it, Seems sude effect of radiation. Did you have that, and was it ongoing for awhile afterward?

Oh...they dud radiation also base of my spine, though no cancer found in lymph,for safe keeping they said, common

I am almost 3 years post treatment (also Grade 3) and just came from my first lymphedema massage therapy. I was fortunate to not have bad side effects while undergoing treatment but as time goes on the late effects are adding up.
Gynecologic Oncology really needs to have a sub specialty for side effects and late effects. I just recently learned that breast cancer patients get a pre-lymphedema measurement check after treatment as this is always a consideration. We get nothing! And what we don’t know can hurt us.

I have those effects but I didn't have radiation. I had long 6 hour treatments every 3 weeks with Carboplatin, Taxipaxel, and Keytruda. They suggested I take vitamin B6 &, B12,
