    I am new

    I have been reading all the posts...just seems like not too many new posts. I had a full hysterectomy for uterine cancer in 12/2012. followed by internal radiation to make sure there were no cells still there. Then I got a met to my rt lung in 12/2014. they removed middle lobe of my rt lung and I had 6 rounds of chemo. My last treatment was one year ago yesterday. So far all is good I have a scan the first of June. My doc says this is as good as it gets and he believes it will recurr. I am just very tired can't get my strength back. I only had a singular met I have heard this is unusual.

    I wish everyone well, prayers and hugs, Cindy

    Anyone out there with info to share?

    Wondering if anyone on this thread is currently dealing with uterine cancer which has spread to the lungs?  My mother had a hysterectomy in January 2018 and was told she had a stage 1B tumor.  She did radiation for 2 months (5 days a week).  She went to the emergency room 2 weeks ago for shortness of breath and they found 3 tumors in each lung.  The largest is 5 cm.  We have an appointment with her gynecology oncologist in the morning and are scared to hear if this is untreatable.  Mom is at home on oxygen and has also been diagnosed with congestive heart failure.  This was very unexpected news as she had a strong heart before all of this.  She is also on a daily dose of letrozole.

    Latest CT scan revealed something on lung

    After having undergone treatment for almost 5 years surgically, radiation, brachytherapy, and Femara, at my last 3 month scan, it was revealed there is another small spot on lung that, I'm told, is too small to be biopsied or identified in any way. I'm having a great deal of trouble accepting this explanation. Being told it's so small and 'we'll just keep an eye on it' is no comfort whatsoever. I'm a nervous wreck and don't know quite how I can put up with this until October. Am I correct in assuming that the likelihood of more cancer is more likely than not? I have been taking Fermara as the treatment for a few years and things have, until now, remained fairly unchanged.

    Hi Muggles,

    I am so sorry to hear about your CT scan.   I have read that sometimes it is not a new metasteses but I know it is scary to even think it might be.  CAn I suggest that you make a new post?  You have a good question but it is hard to find at the borrom of this old post.  It would help too if you give a little infomration about your stage and surgery results.  There are a lot of knowledgable women on this site who will answer you.
