Just a short good news posting - 9 years ago today I had a TAH, BSO and omentectomy and was subsequently diagnosed with stage 1a seromucinous adenocarcinoma. I did not need chemo and have never had a recurrence.
Posted in the hope that at least some of you, especially those newly diagnosed, will find that this gives you hope!
Best wishes to you all,
Barbara

Having just read the Guardian article, seen the 5 year prognosis and done a quick calculation on my fingers I was feeling panicky and low. Then I read this and it has picked me up again. Great news for you and I hope and pray I will be the same. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great to hear such excellent news. We all love to hear success stories. Nice to know that someone is kicking the derriere of this dreadful disease. Much love and hugs to you and all🤗
Barbara-- Thank you for sharing your good news. I was diagnosed 1A borderline in May, and my first follow-up is next week. I'm starting to feel very nervous about having the CA125 test and ultrasound, so it's reassuring to hear your story. --Lani
I'm afraid follow-ups continued to be a source of anxiety for me, especially as I had (and still have) pain from adhesions, which are almost universal amongst those who have had operations such as ours. At least I'm down to once a year, and given the covid19 situation, I don't think I'll be getting one this year!
