@amt1105 I haven't heard specifically of what you are sharing about the tumor in the ovary and endometrial cancer. At least not in our Support Group. We're a self-selected group who comes here and I hope others in group will come here and provide more information about their experiences.
I've been in your place and heard medical results (endometrial cancer) that I wasn't prepared for or expected. It's so frightening and devastating. I'm going to share the advice I give myself. What you're going through is huge and trying to minimize it or trying to block it from your mind isn't helpful. It might sound trite, but allow yourself your feelings. If there are others (your spouse, your children, your close friends) who will sit with you and listen, then allow yourself to share your feelings, especially your fears. If you are having difficulty sleeping (I did) then get up, walk around, and if possible, go outside and look at the night sky. If it's too cold where you are you can look out your windows. I find nature calming and perhaps you do too. The emotional place you are right now is even more scary because you don't have all the information yet. So, you wait for the pathologists to do their work. Waiting is really difficult.
It's very encouraging that lymph nodes were negative as was the pelvic wash. The tumor in the ovary may be benign and unrelated to the endometrial cancer. Hope. That's what I keep coming back to. This doesn't mean "I'll think positive. I'll be optimistic". There is something deeply spiritual, to me, about Hope. You are doing everything right by getting medical care, working with your doctors, and following up. You are turning toward Hope by allowing the professionals to do what they do best.
When is your next appointment with your oncologist?
Thank you so much for your kind words. Last night I didn’t sleep at all it’s been so very difficult. My husband and my daughter have been my rock through all of this. I’m thought the same since they didn’t find any cancer in my lymph nodes or with the pelvic wash, maybe it’s early stage. I don’t know what to think. It’s been such a roller coaster ride. They are did gene bloodwork for the BRCA gene. We will see what comes of that. I cannot thank you enough for your kind words and support. It truly does help to talk with others who have been through this.
