Everything has been this year 2022, started bleeding mid May, urgent care sent referrals to urologist and gynecologist however gynecology called me and said would be mid July since wasn't emergency. I started with a new primary care end of May and she said your not waiting that long. Got me into Women's Health Center. Grants Pass, Or, where I live, the Dr. there saw me 6/1/22. He setup up hysteroscopy 6/27, he was going to remove most of the fibroid, however found endometrial adenocarcinoma was where the bleeding was coming from. He scheduled me to go to Eugene, Or Williamette cancer center there. They did not schedule hysterectomy till 8/29 this year, I was told FIGO 1, however, lesions on the serous s o was changed to 3A and said when they did wash found adenocarcinoma cells in fluid. So, at 2 week post-op was total 3 chemo 8 radiation 3 chemo and then 2 brachy. However, since Eugene was so far away and family wanted me to have treatment in this area not so far away. The Dr. from up there contacted Drs' down here. When I tried to check on treatment with her up at Williamette I am being told that the radiation person chooses treatment plan and he says direction came from them. And, seemed irritate that I would question what he was saying to me. My son is going with me Monday to Chemo and plans on asking alot of questions, I guess I would feel better if there was something they really found somewhere rather than being so drastic immediately after the hysterectomy. Its like going from A to Z in 5 months. But, will be asking more questions for sure.
