    I'm sending you all good wishes for success with the docil and immuneotherapy. Am curious to know that type of tumour you were diagnosed with. I was diagnosed with clear cell ovarian cancer Stage 1A and will be starting chemo next week.

    Wow, you caught your cancer early. That's unusual for ovarian cancer. You must be in tune with your body to recognize early symptoms. I'm sorry that your cancer recurred. I think that must be unusual for an early stage cancer. I had uterine cancer stage IIIC, so I got the works the first time around, surgery, chemo, and radiation. I hope your treatment works for you. They're working so hard to find treatments for these cancers because they are in the middle of the body just waiting to spread to our vital organs. But, you are participating in a clinical trial. It may save your life and others that follow you, so thank you for that.

    Hi and welcome to WhatNext. I was diagnosed with fallopian tube cancer last fall and am now clear of disease though since I was stage IV, I'm still doing chemo. Fun!

    Anyway, happy to meet you although I am so sorry for your diagnosis. If there's anything I can do to help, answer questions, or just listen, I'm here for you.
