@ace1048 Were you diagnosed with Uterine Cancer (Leiomyosarcoma), Stage 1b? If yes, how are you feeling? This is so very difficult and as your doctor likely told you it is a relatively rare cancer of the inside muscle (myometrium) of the uterus. I can tell you that I was completely stunned when my doctor called me to tell me that my biopsy showed cancer (mine was endometrial adenocarcinoma). It took me several days to come out of that shocked state to look at what I should do for treatment.

Here is the description from Mayo Clinic:

Will you need additional treatment such as radiation, immunotherapy or chemotherapy? What is your treatment plan?
