Has anyone had or is considering Total Pelvic Exenteration Surgery?

Posted by ericad21 @ericad21, 6 hours ago

Hello,
I am a 37yo female who was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer(3b) a year ago. I have been through all the radiation I can possibly have, I went through 2 treatments of brachytherapy earlier this year and I am now on my last treatment of chemotherapy. My next step to consider is a total pelvic exenteration operation. It is a major surgery so I wanted to hear all the pros and cons from everyone who has experienced this surgery. My biggest question for anyone who has gone through this surgery is, Would you do it again?
Thank You for taking the time to read part of my story. I would love to hear all the feedback possible and I will also answer questions of myself if you have any.
