Newly Diagnosed: FIGO 2 Uterine Cancer: What does this mean?

Posted by gratefulcat @gratefulcat, Mar 4, 2023

Hi - My recent pathology report showed FIGO 2 for uterine cancer, and I am scheduled for a robotic hysterectomy next week. Does anyone know if these means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body? Has anyone had a cancer journey that started at this grade? Thanks for your help.

Endometriosis cancer being confirmed by Lab test
Hi I started bleeding in march and finally got into doctor on Monday May 22nd, doctor immediately after the Pap smear said I have endometriosis cancer, I did blood work on Tuesday a complete CBC, CA 125, Thyroid panal and this morning a new test showed up on my labatory pending list called a testosterone, free and total (MS). Can anyone tell me just what the testosterone test is about?

@tjohnson2130, I just found your response to @naturegirl5 in a newly started discussion and moved it here so she, @val64, @angierivas1, and others could find it and continue to offer experiences, information and support.

I understand that "elevated serum testosterone level has been associated with an increased endometrial cancer risk in postmenopausal women." https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40618-022-01916-1

@tjohnson2130, was the testosterone test ordered after your diagnosis of endometrial cancer? Did your oncologist explain why it was ordered? How are you doing?
