It has been a long 7 months. I was diagnosed with primary peritoneal cancer stage 3c two days after giving birth to my baby girl. DRs found tumors when conducting my c section. They did a biopsy and diagnosed me. I did 3 cycles(9 sessions) of chemo. Break for debulking surgery. Then 3 more cycles of chemo. After the surgery the DR concluded I had Fallopian tube/Ovarian cancer. I just had my CT scan this week and DR appt. CT scan showed that I'm NED! There is a very very small spot on my liver that my DR thinks is from the surgery and not the diagnosis. I will have CT scan, pelvic exam and blood work in 3 months. My CA 125 is at 9!!! 7 months ago it was at 3,800!! God is so faithful and I'm happy to share this! There is hope that you will get through this rough time. Keep faith and keep on fighting!!!! Xoxo

Hi Ange! Congratulations on both your NED and your little one. I cannot imagine experiencing the roller coaster you went thru at a time when all you should be concerned about is cuddling a newborn.
My story is similar to yours in that my PPC 3b was found during a ventral hernia operation. After surgery, it was also found I had Fallopian tube cancer. I am 13 months NED at present. I am so happy for you and the deep breath you can now take and the burden of worry has lessened a LOT! Hugs to you and your little one.
What a lovely story, so pleased for you and your family and envious of your little baby girl, as one of the ladies said they grow up so fast, enjoy every minute, my twins are 22 already!! Lots of love Sophia xx
Congratulations on reaching NED..I too have PPC stage 3c..My regular 3 month scan results are next week and hoping for good news also.Thanks for sharing your great news.💙💙😆👍
Dear ange, I am so pleased for you, we will keep on fighting this awful disease. I pray every day that I am healed,., and for all the ladies on this site. The sun ☀ is out Today, here in Yorkshire. Sending you love and hugs. Xxxx
I remember your story as well. I am so happy for you! That is just the best news! Enjoy your life and all the joy your baby girl will bring you! Kim xx
Your story was so upsetting initially, that I have often thought about you. I could not imagine looking after a newborn and coping with cancer, an op and chemo at the same time!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your good news, it is the best ever, and I wish you and your family a wonderful, happy summer together.
Awww thank you! It was rough but with the help of my husband and family I made it through. Looking back I don't know how I had the strength but my faith carried me along. I hope you are feeling well 😃😃😘 xoxo
How is baby doing? That's a lot to take on board just after giving birth, especially with all of those raging hormones. Really pleased they found it and worked quickly, may you have a lifetime of NED

I’m new here. My cancer has returned I only found out last week. What can I do for the bloating and feeling of constipation and nausea.
