@lizziegil I'm reading what you shared and wondering what you went through when you received the diagnosis. I'd like to say that this is what pathology does but it doesn't make the diagnosis any easier to handle. You went into the hysterectomy for other reasons and then after surgery the pathology indicated endometroid ovarian carcinoma with squamous and sex-cord like features, FIGO Grade 2, Stage 2?

Like you, I was a healthy and active woman at age 67 when I was diagnosed with endometrioid adenocarcinoma, FIGO Grade 1. The diagnosis came after I had a D&C and hysteroscopy. I was referred to Mayo Clinic since it was evident surgery was indicated and I live in a rural area that doesn't offer this specialty. What a mental rollercoaster this process was. After the hysterectomy I was diagnosed with Stage 1a and no other treatment required. I did have recurrence two years later and received internal and external radiation treatment but no chemotherapy. So, I cannot provide you with any recommendations for chemotherapy but I know others will chime in with their recommendations.

It's wise that you sought out two separate opinions so you can feel confident that this is the treatment that will work for you. One of our members in this support group, @denisestlouie recently posted that she has reached the conclusion " My future is still unknown but there are treatments that we hope will make my disease chronic not terminal. It’s all very new. There isn’t any success stories yet. Maybe I’ll be the one to tell one".

While you wait for responses I encourage you to use the Search Bar at the top of this page. You might type "carboplatin taxol gynecological cancers" to see if others have posted their experiences.

Do you feel up to gentle exercise such as walking?
