Hi. I’m a newly diagnosed 52 year old mama with her2 positive papillary serous adenocarinoma. Can anyone tell me if this is survivable? I’m petrified and want to see my children grow up!

    Hey kimskidsx3 ("mama") try to take a breath. I know it is all overwhelming and there are good supporters here and lots of information.

    Are you working with a gynecologic oncologist? They take extra training to deal with gyn cancers and are probably following all of the ongoing treatments, and they have changed. I only ask so me, and anyone else that comes here, can get a feel of where you are at - besides being overwhelmed (which is understandable!)

    Did you already have a hysterectomy? You will want to ask for a full genetic assay - her2 is only one of all the different genetics that are known about this cancer. (dMMR, mMMR, P53, POLE, etc..)

    Tell us a little more about you, but please remember, you are a statistic of one so be careful of old data and Dr. Google.
