Yes had hysterectomy on April 24 for stage 1A, grade 1 endometrial cancer. Done by robotic surgery and it has gone very well. Go back this week for my 8 week follow up. Very little pain or discomfort. My issues of spotting started in February and after testing my doctor scheduled the surgery as soon as possible. I’m 69 years old with no family history of cancer at all nor I have ever had any female issues.

@vazglo329 It looks like you are getting good support and information from the members in our support group.

I think you are already following the other discussion on thickened endometrium and a cervix that wouldn’t open for biopsy but I wanted to point out there is lots of good information and support in that one too.
