Re:Hysterectomy anyone? CJ

[Guest guest]

Thanks CJ for the response. It's so encouraging everytime I read something GOOD about the surgery! I realize it's a hard situation all the way around, and usually none of us have an identical set of circumstances...but it's just so reassuring to know that hysterectomy is not always bad. I found a site yesterday and my husband and I both agreed I sure won't go back on it. It was so negative about hysterectomy...it was awful! So far, I've honestly been hearing more good from women I've directly spoken with personally or emailed...which is a big plus! Again, I don't want to have the surgery....but I'm so tired of pain...and I think my uterus is adding to my pain at this point. So you've had vulvar cancer? Are you doing okay now...thanks again...Chelle

Chelle,

Yes, I am doing ok right now with the vulva cancer. My surgeries were in 2002 and I've been ned since then. I'm still on 6 mo check-ups with the gyn/onc so I feel very confident that if it does reoccur that we'll catch it pretty fast this time. Thanks for asking.
