I had stage 3 squamous cell carcinoma. It was in the bartholin gland. They removed 6 lymph nodes from the left and 2 from the right. You are the first person I have talked to that has has a similar surgery. How did you find it and were you using a fem ring?

Welcome, @ftwtxgirl. Your surgery is quite recent. So nice of you to join to offer support to @monafone as she prepares for vulvar cancer surgery.
@ftwtxgirl, are you or will be having additional treatment after surgery? How are you doing?
