You may be wrong and your scan might be clear, there are ladies on here who have been in that situation and the numbers stay stable or drop again, there’s no rhyme or reason to it and only the scan will hopefully give an indication to what’s happening.
Having been in this situation I can only advise to plan some nice things this week, keep busy and occupied with lots of self care. If you don’t get the news you are hoping for stay strong in the knowledge that now more than ever, OC is very treatable with lots of maintenance options available to us now. I’m on letrozole and now living with low grade cancer, I’ve got my head round it and my aim now is long term stability. Other than the occasional wobble, I’m quite well and feel positive most days.
I’m sending hugs and hope to you, you’re not alone on here most of us know what you’re going through, and you’ll get through it Xx
Been in that same situation as you, go out and treat yourself to something, the worry about it coming back is always there, good luck with scan, ps. We're they nice chocolate biscuits👍🙂.
Been there, done that twice, got the t shirts, used the same words, been NED 10.5 years this time albeit on a trial drug. Maybe it won’t be a recurrence, face it when you know for sure. In the meantime enjoy what you can. Big hugs x
I know the feeling well. I'm in same position hair back eyelashes and brows back, back to work and socialising normally without having to ask people to stay away if they've a cold and the numbers tell it all. My appt was cancelled due to Dr's strike delayed for 6 weeks now its gone up to 85 despite me telling them it was back. So yes bollocks bollocks bollocks and bollocks with knobs on. Take care xxxxx
I can so identify with your position , and Indeed sentiments ! I've been walking around saying that alot this week ! .I have low grade serous and had my major surgery 4 years ago . Been on letrozole since .It has now gone into my spleen . Came off Letrozole last week and started oral chemo Trametanib last week .
Totally agree with comments, plan good things. Keep lots of activities and interests going and start new things . Keep looking forward with positivity . You know the drill ,I'm just sorry for you, and for me , that we have got to rally and do it again .
yes, it sucks. My OVCA came back after 6 years. I was disbelieving, then mad! I wanted to be a “one and done”. But we live in times of many treatment options and even though I’ve now had 3 recurrences since then, we keep knocking it back. I was diagnosed in 2008. Do your grieving, then give yourself a talking to that you’ll beat this! Positive attitude makes a difference. Sending hugs. 🙏
Sorry to hear your bad news. 👎 but, absolutely love and respect your attitude. Its a setback it doesn't have to define you. You have got this you ballsy woman 😜
