@whengzy19 First the diagnosis of endometrial adenocarcinoma which is so frightening and then the delay because of your low hemoglobin count. It's normal to have a lot of anxiety leading up to the surgery. Finally your surgery was scheduled and it's over. Hopefully you are at home and resting and the Tylenol and naproxen is helping with the pain. With a total abdominal hysterectomy I imagine it will take some time before the pain is less and you feel some energy come back.

When you see your oncologist you will probably get the pathology results. It's when the pathologist examines the tissue that was removed that the final diagnosis is made along with the stage and your oncologist can talk with you about whether you need any more treatment (chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy).

How are you feeling today? Do you have family who are taking care of you while you recover?

Hi Helen
I’m recovering smoothly now. My first and 2nd day are the hardest as I can’t get up by myself from my bed, my daughter need to assist me to get up. Luckily I have my mom lives with me and take care of me. It’s 10 days pass now after my surgery, I can walk more faster now than the previous day. Just noticed that I can’t sit long or stand long as I feel pressure and heaviness on my pelvic area. My 5 incisions looks dried now but the stitches still there.
