Chemo-resistant cancer mutation
Hi folks, thanks for all the helpful info and support on this forum. I've been browsing occasionally since diagnosed with Stage IV endometrial cancer last year but this is my first time posting. I've been fortunate to have nothing observable since surgery, although it makes it weird fighting this invisible disease. Anyhow,…

Ureter Stent Kidney To Bladder -anyone else?
So my story began last year about this time. I was diagnosed with uterine/endometrial cancer which was in my cervix so at first they weren't sure if it was cervical or what. I had external beam radiation and six rounds of low dose carbo. I switched to Sloan Kettering and it was the best decision I could have made. I had…
2 year update
It's been 2 years since my last radiation treatment for Endometrial Cancer stage IIIa. I highly recommend probiotics with many different strains to help get stools back to normal. I had severe diarrhea on and off for a little over 1 year before I did this. I'm totally back to normal and can eat normal food again without…

Question on post D&C operative report
Hello all, 39, premenopausal. After more than a year with increasingly heavy (but regular) menstrual bleeding and anemia, in late 2023 I found an OBGYN clinic that could see me several months earlier than my regular OBGYN. On my first visit, I had a pelvic exam and PAP smear, which found a slightly enlarged uterus and good…
Unexpected D&C results for CAEH - Likelihood of cancer?
I am 48 and haven't had my period in a couple of years. I had unexpected bleeding in September 2023, finally got an appt in October 2023 with my gynecologist who used ultrasound to diagnose 1cm thickness of my endometrius and a polyp. I had my D&C on Jan 2, 2024 and thought it would be like a previous polyp. Benign and no…
Experience with Keytruda/Lenvima?
I am trying to decide which regimen, among three of four choices, to try. The first best would be another carbo/taxol, but I am unwilling to lose my hair again. The second best choice -- medically best, I mean -- would be Keytruda/Lenvima. It seems like most posts about that combination have been pretty dire in terms of…

Endometrial biopsy
I am just curious if anyone's endometrial biopsy missed cancer. If so, how did you find out about the cancer?
I was just diagnosed today, I think I've had symptoms for a long time, anyone else?
my diagnosis is Endometrioid adenocarcinoma, FIGO 1. and my doctor says the outlook is good because it's not something that's been going on for years and years but now that I think about it, I have had symptoms for years and years, I have had difficulty in urination and I guess that's a symptom, now I am super worried

Port - take it out or not?
My last chemo was 6 weeks ago, I want this port out. My Dr said she recommends leaving it for a while but I could have it out if I want. It bothers me, I’m always bumping it and sometimes it itches. Should I be cautious and live with it? I choose to think I am done with all this and the port is not needed anymore, so I…

Shifting my attention slightly
Hello ladies, Does anyone know about changes in microsatellite instability from "stable" to "high?" And what about changes from mismatch repair deficiency "absent" to "present?" I thought the designation was always one way or another and was imprinted in all your cells. I think now it is dependent on the tumor tissue. I am…

Endometrial metastic to both lungs
I have just been diagnosed with endometrial metastic to both lungs. It is inoperable and I have just started chemo treatments. I was never given a chest xray since my first cancer in 2012.

Anyone have any experience on Femara (letrozole)?
Hi Ladies The ugly beast has raised it's head again and my latest CT/PET scan indicates that I have got my third recurrence. It's still confined to the pelvis (no organ or lymph node involvement by the looks of it), but my team reckon it is too close to sidewall to operate and get clear margins (although my scans are going…
