I have been in a similar situation ... was this operation done by a specialist in a bsge centre ? If not pls get a 2nd opinion by a specialist as they have done my operation and managed to save my tubes and ovaries etc. X

Please get a second opinion. Hysterectomy does not always solve the problem and it is very drastic! I have stage 4 and have had several laps but they have managed to separate my bowl from everything else now and saved my tubes too. As you are stage 4 you really need to see be under a bsge centre as you need to see a specialist. x
