The news I have been waiting for

Hello ladies,I hope that you are all taking advantage of this lovely weather.

Yesterday I received a call from my Oncologist,to say the second biopsy has shown a definite result that the cancer in my stomach lining is definitely from the fallopian tube and not the womb cancer The Onc asked me if I could get to the hospital for 12 noon,which I did and so I then had blood tests,which included one for BRCA. I feel now that I can move forward and start more treatment which she believed would be the same chemo I had the first time around. During the interim period I have been taking Megace which is a hormone tablet,and it has prevented progression.

Unfortunately I have to change Oncologists,but I am not to worried as it is at the same hospital

Although I am not looking forward to having chemo,in another way I just want to get started.

Take care all.xx

Thank you, I did see the the new Oncologist when she came onto the ward when I had my biopsy, although of course she did not speak to me personally. I just want to get on with treatment asap.xx

That’s great news, even though it is horrific also!

At least you know your options and everyone knows what they are dealing with now.

I hate this disease, but knowing what it is is half the battle.

Now you can choose your weapons and fight on.

Soon, your ascites will drain away and your digestion will heal, except for the side effects of treat, of course.

Side effects are a big problem for me, but I don’t mind so much as long as I know the treatment is destroying the cancer.

I wish you the best of luck.

Hugs,

Laura
