New here

so sorry you had to find your way here.  This is a great place to come for infi and suppor, also to just vent.  We will be listening.  I was diagnosed in August 2012 when I went tomy GP with an yeast infection and an UTI. He found a small tumor on my cervix and on this rollercoaster I climbed.  Fear is so common although my fear of a recurrence did not last long.  I had a recurrence seven months after I finished frontline treatmeant.  Even though I have been on constant treatment since Jan 2014 I have many more good days than bad and even though our life is different, it is a very good life.  There is always hope

i am glad you are looking into help and support groups, that won't take a way the fear, but it will help cope with it

Hugs and prayers, Lou Ann

So sorry that you have to be here but this is a very supportive and informative group. In my case back in summer 2015 I didn't feel well. Had no energy at all and was always out of breath. When I finally got checked in Oct it turned out that I was very anemic. I had also lost weight. A couple weeks after this I started having vaginal bleeding. I was sent by by primary doc to the gyn. I had a pap smear which clearly showed cancer followed by an endometrial biopsy. From there I had a hysterectomy (results were stage 1A, grade 3, uterine carcinosarcoma, an aggressive cancer) followed by chemo and brachytherapy. For me I have gotten lots of help and support for the emotional issues and help restoring my physical well being after treatment from a cancer support community program. The program I go to has a wide range of services including counseling, support groups, resource coordination, massage therapy, accupuncture, Reiki, classes for yoga, tai chi, meditation, stress reduction, nutrition, dealing with all the issues that go with cancer, etc., etc. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something like this in your community. They're likely to be better equipped to deal with the issues that go along with a history of cancer than the majority of community therapists. Stay hopeful and keep in touch with us and let us know how you're doing.

i appreciate your post.  I am also new.  I was diagnosed on 1/16 and have completed radiation and VB.  I start my first chemo on 4/24.  I have stage2. I constantly worry about recurrence.  So much so that sometimes I think it has overtaken my life. I pray that all of your tests and your appointment tomorrow shows NED.  Prayers for you.
