I'm getting ready to start chemo this next Wednesday and am getting my port put in tomorrow. I just dread what is ahead, but doing my best to keep a positive attitude. Radiation will follow the chemo.

I was diagnosed with a rare & aggressive uterine cancer, estimated at stage 3 .... Undifferentiated Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma (high grade), on Nov. 30, 2011. I went through chemo, then radiation, and completed treatment in July 2012. If you have any questions or just want to talk, feel free to post. I will help if I can.

Hi there. I noticed you starting following me. Please let me know if I can be of assistance. I was diagnosed w/ stage IV endometrial cancer in July 2012, but I"ve been incredibly lucky in that my cancer was grade one and my mets were to my omentum and could be removed. Survived chemo & now past my first anniversary. I'm here if you need some goofy humor. : )

Hi, Hope you are feeling good, I just finished chemo a few weeks ago, had my cat scan last week. Anxiety does get you waiting for test results.
