@jessy0628 What a frightening birthday gift that must have been. I can tell you I was in shock and very frightened when my doctor told me my diagnosis. I felt a little relieved once there was a plan in place to see a gyn-oncologist surgeon. That happened so quickly that I barely had time to worry and think about what might happen. Like you, I learned after surgery that my endometrial cancer (endometrioid adenocarcinoma) was Stage 1a, Grade 1.

I’m so happy for you that the endometrial cancer was staged 1a with grade 1. That’s so encouraging. It’s now time for you to heal and take care of yourself. I was mostly just tired after my surgery. I didn’t have any pain when I came home but I did sleep a lot for about a week.

When you see your gyn-oncologist next week I’m hopeful that no other treatment is recommended. Your doctor will likely give you your survival plan with all of your medical information related to the endometrial cancer and the follow-up appointments that are recommended and referred to as cancer surveillance. Here is an explanation of a survival plan.

Will you come back here and let me know what happens at your appointment next week?
