@cmb2022 Was the endometrial biopsy performed in the office? That's what I thought my local gynecologist planned to do but he thought I was very low risk for uterine cancer so he recommended the D & C based on sonogram findings that showed endometrial thickening. Like you, I was completely blindsided by the diagnosis after the D & C. And yes, we hope for the best, don't we. Now I'm cancer survivor. I will share that the adjustment to this new perception of myself has taken time and the shock of the initial diagnosis went away quickly enough after there was a medical action plan in place. And then there is Mayo Clinic Connect which has been a lifeline for me. The support here is awesome.

Your appointment is coming up soon. March 4 is around the corner. How are you taking care of yourself?

Yes, the biopsy was done in the gynecologist's office. I can still hear my surgeon telling me it was cancer. I don't know that I will ever forget his words. For now I am just trying to recover from surgery. It was just 12 days ago. I am still confused and processing it all. I am also dealing with menopause and that is definitely something new to me.

Thank you so much for all of your insight and most of all for the support! ❤
