Hi dianan! My real name is diann - very close to yours! Welcome to WhatNext! I'm so very sorry to hear of your diagnosis but you've found a great place to ask questions, get information, and share experiences.
Almost 6 years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 fallopian tube cancer and I've had a couple of relapses. Still in treatment - in fact my alarm just chimed - time for my next infusion.
Anyway, some time ago, I recorded a series of videos for WhatNext about my cancer journey. You may find them helpful. I've included a link at the end of this message should you wish to check them out.
WhatNext.com is a great place for everyone, from the newly diagnosed to those of us who've been living with cancer for some time - friends and loved ones too! While you're here at WhatNext.com, check out the questions and experiences of other folks here. You can find people who've had the same cancer, surgeries, chemotherapy and experiences should you wish. It's often reassuring to know others have been through what you're facing and thrived. I also recommend the PINBOARD - there are often humorous or uplifting posts that can make your day. Definitely worth checking out.

Hi and welcome. You have found a great site. LOTS of info here and LOTS of support. I am a long term survivor (9 1/2 years) fallopian tube cancer, Stage IIIC. I have never had a recurrence. I believe that nutrition has had a lot to do with my continuing good health. If I can help at all, please let me know. Once we are member of this "crummy club", we are there for each other.0January 2014

There are also subtypes listed on this page to narrow down the type of cancer to match your dx.
Also, if you can take a few minutes and fill in some details of your journey so far, it will help others as they try to answer questions for you, it also helps others as they search through the data base to find someone like themselves. Confirming your email will allow you to receive updates and notices from the site when someone answers your questions or writes on your wall.
Thanks for being with us and let me know if I can help you find any information on the site.
