Can I ask what you mean by..... you won't be going back?

If it has spread to the lymph nodes, yes. I had a total hysterectomy BSO for stage 2 endometrial cancer, followed by radiation. My cancer returned 1.5 years later as a metastasis in my low back, for which I am now undergoing chemo.

@@lf7065oh no. Hope you get it this time 🙏🏻

@@kathleenflatley3973 Thank you so much! I'm definitely feeling much better already! 🙏🙂

No. You cannot get endometrial cancer, if you had a hysterectomy, before you had any cancer. Please note that endometriosis is NOT the same as endometrial cancer, that is a separate, non-cancerous condition.

@@lf7065It's a mistake that you did not have chemo, along with radiation, after your initial diagnosis and surgery. You should consider suing your doctors.

Marylin I have serous carcinoma type 2 I am going to start Chemo and possibly radiation What did you do? Are you ok now?

You both have a minority type of endometrial cancer, that is particularly aggressive. It is not estrogen sensitive, like the majority of endometrial cancers are, so hormonal treatments will not help you. You both need to pursue both chemo and radiation after your surgeries, no "maybe" about it, if you want to live. I wish you the very best of success with your treatments.
