Hi Dolcie,

You haven't said whether you have been on chemo or not....but it might not be a recurrence as these nodules might have been there all the time...for instance I had nodules on my first scan (before operation) they were also there after my operation.. and after I had chemo so they are keeping and eye on them... but when I had a recurrence it was not the nodules it was somewhere else so at the moment I don't think the nodules are doing anything (not growing or shrinking) best wishes love x G x

Hi,

I had nodules after 6wks after surgery prior to chemo- they had disappeared mid way through chemo on the second scan. Consultant thought they could be scar tissue/ endometriosis or tiny tumours which were too small to be seen on pre-surgery scan. He said anything under 6mm was not significant and to worry if they started to grow! That was four years ago and so far so good!! Good luck.

I had exactly the same experience and advice as you Polly. I'm assuming they'll (the nodules) will let me know when something needs to be done. Apparently you can live with them and just be aware in case you develop any persistent abdominal pain or bloating. Otherwise business as usual.

Sounds good you've done so well. xxxxx love Annie

Dear Dolcie, obviously this is a worry for you so I do hope they're not something that is going to cause problems. The other responses seem like grounds for optimism.
