in Uterine/Endometrial Cancer #1

I had cancer of the uterus 25 years ago. I had a total removal of the uterus plus surrounding tissues. that was a doddle compared with the tongue and neck one I,m going through now. I,m out of treatment after neck dissection and radiation but it's been still is pretty brutal. hopefully I,ll beat this one too. the two cancers can't be linked as they are so far apart.

    Hi

    Glad to see you here,but sorry for the reason behind it!  The two  cancers CAN be the of the same kind even that far apart. Even though it is probably very rare, as my dr. told me"cancer can and does EXACTLY what it wants to"  Have you had the newest cancer tested for an origan?  A tumor assay done?  Nothing surprises me anymore! Please come back and keep us updated.  I'm sure a lot of things will be different the time around than the last!  Best of luck and Merry Christmas  Debrajo
