Uterine Papillary Serous Carcinoma: What treatments did you have?

And I just cycled the pyranees, did a triathlon in august and will do a granfondo ride next Sept.! Neither of the drugs you and miraclegirl were given were offered to me? I guess I need to know the pathology of my tumour. More research. It seems to never end but this is a good thing! Ecstatic to here you are training and the bike ride sounds intriguing. I am in Canada. What drugs made up your “non -curative” chemo? What an odd phrase to attach to out..Keep setting goals and reaching them that’s what I’m setting my mind to do. Ive been NED since May 2018 now. Chemo ended Oct. 31/18 but my oncologist says the NED goes from when the surgery removed it? They also said they were going for curative not palliative care. I will be asking about the drugs you tow ladies have mentioned. God bless all of us!

The chemo drugs were the standard Carboplatin & Taxol, which the tumour responded to initially, but then didn't. I was denied radiotherapy sandwiched between chemo cycles, and at the end because it was not expected to contribute to my survival. My cancer seems to have progressed before I had surgery, and then I had another 3 months wait before chemo.
You must been exceedingly fit. I presume the Pyranees are the ones in France. I must check out the Granfondo ride. I am pleased that you were regarded as curative and are now NED.
