    So glad came back clear. My heart breaks for you and the insurance. There is a relief you get after you move forward. Are you having abdominal or robotic? Had robotic and it was easy but told before hand might end up with abdominal depending on what they saw. If I can help please ask. Judy. Oh, what were your symptoms?

    Your Story makes my want to throw up. WHAT a country. What about Obama Care.....everybody can get that and if you are poor you pay very little. I'd check TODAY.
    Also for some Nutritional Ideas check out my profile page.
    Go to experiences and go to other care.

    I had 2 scans, one for female organs, one for stomach, colonoscopy. Three weeks in a row I had to drink that nasty stuff, thought would never end. Now that I finished chemo sure have another. I hate that stuff.

    Now I understand the reason for the colonoscopy at this point. I had genetic testing done to find out if I had a gene that is associated with uterine cancer and colon cancer, as there is some colon cancer in the family. I was negative for that, thanks God. I did not want to be passing on any bad genes.Glad all is working out and soon you get going with the treatments. I know I felt less stress after i started the battle.Keep me posted. God be with you..

    So glad you found help. I still do not understand why the colonoscopy has to be done when you have a condition that needs attention, God be with you.

    Hi Denise735,

    I hope your search for treatment and funding support is bearing fruit. Having a cancer diagnosis is all by itself a crisis, and having to worry about how to find and pay for treatment is more than anyone should have to bear. I don't have any answers here, but I'll pray that you find exactly what is needed and that you'll be a survivor after all.

    Hi Denise. I noticed you elected to follow me. I had I can be of help. I see that you said you don't qualify for the affordable care act. Don't quite get that one. I work for a med insurance company & our company was granted contract in three states.. I'll be the first to admit I don't know that muchabout theCo-ops, as we call tthem--I audit phone calls for oother groups for quality. But my boss reminded us that some of oor callers never had insurance before.

    The clinic you went to should be able to help you find free care. I volunteer at a free clinic and the cancer patients with no money have been treated. There is help out there you have to be proactive, do not give up. God be with you.

    denise, That would probably be a colposcopy. Endometrial/uterine cancer is fairly slow-growing. And they will not be able to tell you a lot until after your hysterectomy. Try not to worry. In my case, I had been having systems that no one caught for over a year...continuous bleeding, pressure in my abdominal area and lower back, etc. All were explained away. Since it was much easier than hearing"CANCER", I accepted the reasoning. By the time they took me seriously, I had started intense bleeding. By then, it had been over a year. I had a radical hysterectomy, external and internal radiation and no chemo. What I am trying to say is try to take one step at a time and do not let your mind make this monster uglier or meaner than he really is. I hope your journey is an easy one,,,am praying.
