2nd recurrence

hi ladies. As you know I am going through my second recurrence. My team have not been able to biopsy my offending lymph node as it is to dangerous to biopsy. So the have started me on another course of 6 rounds of Pacitaxol/Carboplatin.

I’ve been told that my cancer is slightly more difficult to treat as it was Stage 2 Grade 3 adenocarcinomasarcoma. Are there any other ladies out there with the same diagnosis.

It would be nice to know I’m not the only one. I’m feeling really alone.

I know I can beat this again

yes, you can beat this. I’ve been knocking back clear cell OVCA since 2008. Just remain vigilant and be your own advocate.

Aww Thanks. My best advice is stay vigilant w checkups. My first recurrence was 6 years after diagnosis. Some people stop checking at 5 years. OVCA is sneaky and persistent. We must keep going for checkups. Also, read all you can on your type of cancer and any new treatments! Discuss them with your Oncologist. I pray for us all! ❤️🙏

Yes. We are having a bit of dreary weather here too. Stay snuggled in. If you have a cat or dog, grab them! Maybe treat yourself to a special cup of tea? Do things that give you Pleasure. ❤️
