Hi I haven't had contact but I have been speaking with one lady (not on this forum) who says she is amazing and is like a 'best friend'. Also Nicky100 saw her (and was on the BBC2 Hospital programme being operated on by her. Might be worth messaging Nicky? Best Wishes.

I had initial operation locally and then was referred to her. She is lovely. She removed two more tumours, peritoneum and all fatty tissue from bowel. This was in 2015 she recommended chemo after this op and I am still clear. Well worth asking her opinion. Good luck,

Hi Rachel,

I've just replied in full to 2mini2 with how to access the team, so if you go back to her original post you'll find it at the bottom.

All the very best, Lesley

P.S. Like the others you are welcome to get in touch is you think I cold add anything to how others are helping you.

I approached the team, of which she is one of the surgeons, for a second opinion at the end of Jan 2013 when my stage 3c clear cell carcinoma recurred with tumours too close to the aorta and renal arteries for Addenbrookes to feel the "mortality rate is too high". The team is at West London Gynae Cancer Centre (imperial.nhs.uk/our-service.... Click on 'Meet the team' and the lady we are talking about is next from the bottom of the five named Consultant Gynaecological oncologists) She operated on me, with Alan Farthing in Feb 2013, I returned to Addenbrookes for chemo (dose dense carbo/taxol + Avastin) and so far so good. Chemo cannot kill clear cell at stage 3 (so my onc told me), so the team must have managed to get every single cell out at the operation.

If you are interested the link ovacome.org.uk/wp-content/u... 'my story' as part of the update on research is on page 7 & 8.

Warm wishes for a good day. Lesley
