Hello, I am new here.
Beginning of the year I received my uterine clear cell carcinoma diagnosis. It is a very rare cancer and I was wondering if there were other women here who have the same diagnosis.

I was just told I have a high grade. Endometrial carcinoma. It is a grade 3. However the cancer stayed within the uterine wall. So it is a stage 1A grade 3. I hade radical surgrey and one round of chemo which I had a horriable breathing attack. So now they want to start a new one. As long as I am 1a 3 why do I have to do chemo. I want a second opinion and my doctor said to go ahead but still do chemo this week. I am confused. Please help

I was just diagnosed 8 weeks ago with stage 3a mixed clear cell and serous cancers. I am also HER2 positive. I had a radical hysterectomy and I've had my first cycle of chemotherapy. The cancer was contained to the uterus and one fallopian tube. I'm both realistic about this cancer and I'm hopeful that surgery, chemotherapy and life style changes will be curative. But I to would like to know what others are doing to be cancer free long term.
