Looking for a treatment plan for this type of cancer. For my wife she is covered by kiaser but they can’t seem to come up with the right treatment plan

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Gynecologic Cancers Support Group.

@naturegirl5 Not so great or as close as I’d like..I’ve been defined to my children and their spouses by my ex-husband..he managed to turn my battle with cancer into a battle with him and his incompetency. Luckily, they’re all smart, and have figured him out..now it’s just the standard sympathy and loyalty games. He was never on my side, according to my Drs, Church, and friends. Be sure that your support circle includes your spouse and children, and don’t be afraid to ASK your Drs, Church, and friends to speak to them on your behalf. Right prevails, but may take years..so get everyone on board without sharing the scary details. ‘Momma has a bobo, and needs to rest’ was not enough.

@jade2026
Please I have just been diagnosed with this squamous vulvar cancer. Can anyone say if chemo; protron radiation, anything can be dind to shrink it first? They want to do surgery first, Kersting it’s a really big surgery. Radiologist says “looks like it has spread to lymph nodes”. I’m ready to plan my funeral, so worried and don’t know anything about this, they just keep saying it’s a really big surgery??! They want me to talk to a plastic surgeon and anesthesiologist. Does anyone live through this surgery and can you walk after the surgery please please. I appreciate this so much. Thank you.
