Diagnosed with serous endometrial carcinoma early June 2025
Hi all,
I was diagnosed with serous endometrial carcinoma in the first week of June, 2025.
There was a normal amount of time between biopsy, pathology, referral to a Gyn oncologist and meeting the highly recommended and qualified surgeon. But there was a glitch in the before hysterectomy imaging, so I’m now scheduled for a PET scan 7/17. It seems like a long time to wait for the recommended complete hysterectomy , especially as I’ve had post menopausal bleeding for years before new gynecologist took action. Am I worrying over nothing? Is 2 weeks extra wait really a big deal? Of course I wanted the surgery done the day I got the diagnosis but life doesn’t work that way!
I'm also a grateful almost 32 year bone marrow transplant survivor, done for CML ( a form of leukemia) back in 1993. So this isn’t my first rodeo. I’m sure this journey will be easier as I’m turning 64 this month and my son is no longer a 2 year old.
Thanks for any advice and support
