March 20, 2017 began my active treatment for stage 3A, UPSC with a robotic complete hysterectomy. Same protocol as polkagal above, only I received 3 rounds of Brachytherapy following the completion of Carbo-Taxol chemo. I included supplements from an integrative medical doctor, most importantly Coriolus (15/day which I will continue until I am a 4-year cancer thriver), Reishi Gano (8x/day) and meditation. My neuropathy plateaued and then decreased to mild tingling with the supplements she recommended and I still take Seriphos to prevent any symptoms from recurring. I have never regained my original stamina and I am experimenting with different treatments for that. I have done week-long cleanses annually, the first to remove chemo toxins a few months following the end of my active treatment. I am interested in sharing with other members of this UPSC very special club how they are thriving following their active treatment. I don't have adequate words to express my gratitude to my surgeon, oncologist, radiation therapist and all members of their teams for everything they did during my active treatment. I send my loving support to those of you in the beginning of your journey to healing.
