You've been left confused by what you've heard and that's not good, if you can I Suggest you call your clinical nurse specialist this afternoon and query it with her just to initially confirm 3a or c. Any ovarian cancer diagnosis is hard to hear let alone finding out that your initial diagnosis may have changed. Thinking of you and Sending you loads of good wishes and positive thoughts.

Take care

Thank you , should have said , nurse went to check and confirmed it , I know it could be worse because thankfully it was microscopic and technically it's all gone ( apart from tiny bits) after surgery, just need to get a grip , one of my friends has a saying 'go to the fridge and get a can of man up' and that's what I need so I'm heading to the fridge xx

It's still a shock as you've got your head around the initial diagnosis, so I hope you've found a big can of 'man up'!! Although a can of 'fight like a girl' is much, much stronger !!! X

Your right, fighting like girl👊🏻
