I have just had a phone call from the Macmillan nurse who had promised to let me know the histology result following my hysterectomy and the removal of the tumour which had been attached to my fallopian tube, omentum, appendix and bowel. It was benign. Yes, benign. I can hardly believe it. I don`t think I have ever cried tears of happiness before.
Apparently there were a few cells attached to my appendix which they coud not identify, and as a precautionary measure I am going to have a colonoscopy in a few weeks. However, as I have not experienced any symptoms related to bowel cancer I am going to be optimistic.
I am just so relieved the tumour was benign I could shout it from the roof tops, and if I was not still feeling a tad uncomfortable from the hysterectomy I would dance round the room.
