My wife had the same problem with spotting and irregular bleeding even after having gone through menopause but put off going to the gynecologist. When my mother passed away and my daughter came home for her funeral, she forced her mother to go with her to a gynecologist. It was there that they found out my wife had stage 3 Endometrial Cancer. After having a hysterectomy, Radiation, and Chemotherapy she was clear of cancer for 6 months then it returned with a vengeance. She did another round of chemotherapy, but she was far gone at that point. Unfortunately my wife died 6 months after she finished chemotherapy. This was 15 years ago and I still miss her every day.
My mom passed away this year from retroperitoneal cancer and kidney failure. Her legs were swelling initially and they diagnosed her with DVT. Even with blood thinners she lost use of her legs and they said she had herniated disc. I moved her from one hospital to a university hospital and they finally diagnosed her with a henorrhage. It killed her within a month. I had an autopsy done which showed this large 18cm tumor was squamous cell cancer that metastasized from endometrial cancer. I pray everyone gets proper medical care and that youre believed.
Please, please let the doctors who missed her cancer know their error. In the past, I've not reached out to medical practitioners after they've missed diagnosing me with issues. I wish I would have, but I was always too busy working and dealing with health issues, bills, etc... I just assumed it wouldn't make a difference or they'd never receive my correspondence. I've become so perturbed at the state of medical care as of late that I encourage everyone to reach out with their confirmation.
The look on your face when you say cancer free it radiated your blog. Will be praying for you. Praying for cancer free and live a good long, normal life.🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for your story. I’m getting ready to start my journey. Doctors found a lesion on my head of my pancreas just this last week. Almost 6cm in length. I’ve been so sick. Lost 40 lbs quickly. I should have went a year ago but my right rib cage was only sore. Please everyone don’t ignore the signs!
Congratulations 🎉 I lost a brother and sister to cancer. Had it myself, endometrial. Caught it early. Ladies if something seems wrong, please don't wait. You too guys! Take care of the body. I'm 79 now. And I miss Ginny and Dan every single day.
It is really nice to hear this story with a happy outcome, and i can relate on so many levels HPV is no joke, for 1 out of every 10 people infected it leads to cancer, some of us rare cancers. I cheer on the effort to encourage people to get tested yearly, get the vaccine of you're young and pay attention to your health and what your body is trying to tell you. I finished treatment 5 months ago for stage 2c SCC anal cancer. I had all my regular paps, 6 years ago had a full hysterectomy including my cervix which was tested and everything came back negative for any evidence of abnormal cells. (just like in the patient story their were symptoms i likely wrote off as something else) last year my symptoms began to get more intense, fatigue increase in my ibs symptoms, cramping, i had gone to my doctor starting last February saying i was unwell and something was wrong, but was told things like your getting to "that age" and i was diagnosed with fibromyalgia as the reason for my increased pain and fatigue. it wasnt until i experienced rectal bleeding that i myself finally knew this was definitely something else and not just related to age (im only in my early 50s) even then it took 3 month to get a medical professional to listen to me, prior i was told it was a fissure and was given suppositories, which of course did nothing. 2 and a half months later i finally had my colonoscopy apt. I knew the when in the middle of this procedure the gi surgeon started taking multiple biopsies they had found cancer. After the procedure she came to my bed and i asked her before she said anything, is it cancer? She just said she found something abnormal but her look tld me the answer. I was told 14 days they would have the results. I had a call from her on day 6, on the 7th day i was contacted by the cancer agency. and so my treatment began, 1 year after i had first gone to my pcp seeking help. During the course of my diagnosis and treatment i also founf out. Have spinal arthritis with stenosis, degenerative disk disease, facet disease, an adrenal tumour that is secreting hormones, severe apnea, and moderate emphysema. I have not yet been declared cancer free but my oncologist believes m primary tumour has had a total response to treatment, however i have multiple small lesions on my liver that they have put on watch and wait. Still i hope to be declared NED come October when i have my first post treatment pet scan. What a ride, 1 year ago i thought i was fine just feeling crappy, well I'm living in a completely different world now.
I was diagnosed with Clear Cell ovarian in 2013. I was stage 3a at diagnosis. I did the chemo and the radiation 25 treatments. I’ve been NED all this time now. It was good to watch your story ❤️
I also was dx with clear cell ovarian cancer. I had the taxol/carboplatin tx for 6 rounds after having extensive abdominal surgery, removing all visible ca. I'm on "surveillance mode" with labs (markers)& imaging every 3mo. Did you have abdominal surgery at all & I'm curious why they did radiation. My scans currently are NED but my markers are still normal but increasing slightly with each drawl, which is very concerning. My gynecologist said we would not treat until we see concrete evidence of relapse. He discussed treatments available for relapse. But stated it would depend on how far out I was from initial treatment before I relapsed, which will warrant what my next treatment will be. So very scary waiting for the next scan...
Thank you, I'm sorry you had to go through all of that, but I'm so happy you had a great husband by your side, it's heart warming to have that love coming from him, hats off to him. PEACE.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Three years ago I was diagnosed with 3C ovarian cancer. Last month I was diagnosed with lupus. It’s nice to know that you’ve handled a similar diagnosis and are doing well. ✨🌸✨
@@lisaschuster686 💛 Sorry I know you did not ask me. But for me my body did not attack the cancer cells. I wish and hoped. Instead my body just was in a constant flare up state. More rashes, swelling, pain etc.
Your story moves me so much, and I so appreciate your courage sharing your journey. Thank you! Also, hugs to you and your husband as you take this journey together.
So sorry your having to be on this cancer journey. You have developed many different illnesses during this process. How difficult your health had dropped while trying different treatments to put you into remission. Better news was they informed you that you were cancer free. Keep up the fight.🎗🎗🥊🥊🔔
I just watched your story. You had my rash!! I had that rash last year. ER said it was a drug reaction. My own Dr said he couldn’t figure out the rash, and had never seen anything like it. It didn’t go all the way away for like a month. That was 3 months before I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I hope everything goes well for you. God bless you!
If it wasn't for my Son and Daughter I might not be here today last year I was diagnosed with cervical cancer and I'm now Cancer Free but still have to be checked every few months ... I totally feel for you sweetheart I'm 67 years old and so a lot older than yourself you keep strong 💜🙏💜 Loveeeeee Caz UK
What a remarkable story. It really came across that the doctor's have so much more knowledge about cancer now and so many ways to treat it. You are so brave talking so openly about your cancer so soon after it was diagnosed. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your story. It really does help so many people to be more aware and to listen to our bodies.
I’m in midtown Omaha. 32 years at UNMC b4 retiring. Lost my sis here to leiomyosarcoma 9years ago. I only had an abnormal noncancerous tumor on my ovary - but worked with main Methodist cancer center for that, & they were great. Wishing you full healing and remission. Hashimoto’s & T1 diabetes are no picnic but can be managed. Hope you live to see great grandchildren!
@maureenfitzgerald1895 my grandfather had leiomyosarcoma also! We have since been told through genetic testing that we have Li Fremeni in our line. My mom had stage 4 breast cancer at 28 but is now 72, thankfully! I have also had a great neice pass at 6 yrs old from glioblastoma, and her aunt had breast cancer at 32 and now a rare type of pediatric leukemia as an adult, which she is still living with. It's so crazy how genetic disorders can change the course of what your sense of nornal looks like. I haven't tested yet, but I'm hoping it skipped me! I am so sorry for your loss, I'm sure it was so hard to lose your sister! 💗🙏
Thank you for sharing your experience and story ❤I love your relationship with your supportive husband ❤I pray God’s blessings and miraculous healing powers upon you ❤
Doesn't even sound like she had cancer. All tissue they biopsied came back as benign. If this was the case, why did they push her to continue with "treatment". Sounds crazy to me.
Wow what a journey you have been on. I have st 3c clear cell aggressive endometrial cancer. Had 6 rounds chemo, 3 radiation and now on Keytruda. Today I get my 3 month scan. I do have scanciety. I am 83 and am doing everything I can do live a lot longer. Thank you for sharing your journey.❤
Literally crying esp when u said u wanted to hold a grand baby ! I think I am about to get diagnosed with lymphoma and I’m just been scared as hell lately ! I have not eaten or went out ! I’m literally getting checked out every 4 months from now out and thank you for showing the strength against something so scary
Wow what a journey, god bless you 🍀🙏 you give me hope. Thank you for sharing your story. Stage 4 stomach cancer here diagnosed March have been in chemo and now going in for surgery in a month
Wow we are so sorry to hear about your diagnosis! If you would like to share your story with us, here is the introductory survey link: thepatientstory.com/share-your-story/
Thank you so much for sharing your journey and INSIGHTS: to pay attention to and advocate for our bodies! Wishing you all the best during your treatment, recoveey and LIFE! 🙏🥰
Wow, bless your heart, Kate. You've really been through it but SO glad to hear the outcome is positive. I appreciate you still have medication/prevenrative treatment going forward, but well done you. Your wonderful husband too. Take good care, sweetie. Live your life and enjoy. Be kind to youself and go with the flow. Love and light. ❤ xx
How amazing! Congratulations! I'm so sorry you had to go through all of this but you seem like you are so strong on this side of it. Prayers that you stay cancer free! ❤🎉
Nearly 18 years ago, I was diagnosed with Stage 3c Endometrioid Adeno Squamous Carcenoma - ovarian cancer like what they thought you might have. I went in for a benign mass removal and they found it. Chemo was Taxol (22 hours slow drip) and Cisplatin (2 hours). After a 6 week break, I had radiation (my cancer was retro-peritoneal as well). No recurrence…so very grateful. Two pieces of advice: not only should every woman get annual Pap smears, but every couple of years, I’d get a pelvic ultrasound as well. Second, if you have cancer, please ask your doctor is the Signatera test is right for you. I’d never heard of this before, but after 14 years, they found a tumor sample of mine in storage and were able to run this new test for me. In addition to the CA-125, I feel like this is good additional monitoring. Best of luck and well wishes to you!
Oh, this so encouraging! I am being nervous about my many symptoms and endometrioma which is not biopsied yet. This gives me hope! 18 years is a long time! ❤ So super happy for you!!! ❤❤❤
Such a positive attitude even after all you've been through. I have some similar symptoms and the one that gets me a little on edge is the rash you had all over your body That happened to me a week after I had a hysterectomy. I have hashimotos, hypothyroid, PCOS, the left pain under the rib cage, pain in my belly, and also had my gallbladder removed. I get a CT abd/pelvis tomorrow to check something the saw a few years ago and I have a kidney stone on the left. Prayers that you stay healthy and strong always.
I didn't know that it was possible to have type one diabetes for a long time and not be aware of it because I thought that going without insulin at all is like a death sentence . I'm really glad that your story had a happy ending despite all the gloom and doom which just goes to show that things can take a turn for the better and there's always hope!
The nephew’s 12 year old had symptoms of Type I but it took almost dying with a super super high blood sugar, and keto acidosis, for the doctors to finally look into it. She is doing well but it was a close call.
Thank the good Lord that I do not have cancer. But I do have COPD (haven't smoked in 30 yrs) and also sideroblastic anemia. It's hard sometimes when I can't breathe very easily and know eventually one of them will end my life. I was so inspired by your video and literally clapped my hands at the end. You will be included in my prayers for a continued healthy life!
Out daughter passed away from the same cancer. They refused to do a biopsy for months until a doctor lost it in the emergency department she went to. She definitely didn’t receive the chemotherapy and care you received. It was a nightmare here in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I am here mother and help my son-in-law raise their 2 children. There was no offer of surgery and no support services.
I am so sorry and saddened by your loss of your daughter. It is truly a blessing and a miracle that you are able to help your grandchildren and son-in-law. I hope that by being together, your healing will a bit easier. 🙏 🕯💖
My Dad had colon cancer. His oncologist explained the cancer cells this way: there are unknown aliens, new babies, crawling toddlers and raging teenagers! They are always evolving. We can get those nasty teenagers easily, but those little, tiny ones are not always clearly seen, so we have to keep going until we get the all clear. I thought it to be a very good and easy to understand explanation. God speed to you my dear. You survived like a trooper!
Your rash was so scary, but you handled it really well. You have been through so much and are so brave, strong, and looking beautiful. I am hoping that you are feeling better each day. I am also a detail oriented person. I need to know all the facts so I can start processing. Don't sugar coat it. Your dog in the picture looks very sweet. I am sorry that after everything, you were then diagnosed with Diabetes 1. But it is good that it was finally discovered after years. The very best of luck to you in your future.
Congratulations! Bright blessings to you and your husband and to everyone one in the medical community who worked with you with such professionalism and kindness! May the path forward comtinue to be filled with the best that could happen!!!
Wow! That's a lot to deal with. You are very strong to have gone through this and now are cancer free. The good lord was looking out for you. You go girl!
Such a powerful story and you are an incredibly strong woman, supported by an amazing husband. The news you received just prior to this video must have been so amazing for you all. Continue your plan of yearly checks and whatever else you decide upon as it is your future and you are so young.
I’m so sorry for what you went through and am thrilled with the outcome for you! I have to say, you have had the best explanation of your type of Myeloma yet. Stay well! 😊❤️🇨🇦
I have been awake almost all night with some pain and a very full/uncomfortable pressure feeling under my right ribs. I was watching cooking videos and yours popped up. I’m thinking I need to see my Dr as my gallbladder has already been removed and 8/28/23 I had a double mastectomy. My breast cancer was caught very early and with the double mastectomy, good margins and clear lymph nodes I didn’t need chemo or radiation, just Tamoxifen for 5 years. I was very lucky. I’m so grateful you are cancer free now. You are an inspiration with your strength and determination. Thank you for sharing your story 💖
You sweet thing. You are DEFINITELY not done, dear. I'm so happy for your outcome. And, you might not have learned of your other diseases if not for the cancer. I learned I had Type 2 Diabetes when I was in the hospital for a gall bladder surgery. Thank God I did! I have been managing it for sixteen years now and feel great. It's always good to look for the siilver linings. I predict a long happy life for you. And you will be a wonderful grandmother!
Thank you for sharing this part of your life. I’m so glad the chemo did its job! And I hope you’ll never again have to deal with any cancer. You and your husband are a beautiful couple. I love your style (something I seldom notice), and your cat and dog.
What a story. I'm glad they found the tumors and were able to treat it.
My wife had the same problem with spotting and irregular bleeding even after having gone through menopause but put off going to the gynecologist.

My mom passed away this year from retroperitoneal cancer and kidney failure. Her legs were swelling initially and they diagnosed her with DVT. Even with blood thinners she lost use of her legs and they said she had herniated disc. I moved her from one hospital to a university hospital and they finally diagnosed her with a henorrhage. It killed her within a month. I had an autopsy done which showed this large 18cm tumor was squamous cell cancer that metastasized from endometrial cancer.
I pray everyone gets proper medical care and that youre believed.

She's handling everything really well. I hope she continues to be in remission.
It is really nice to hear this story with a happy outcome, and i can relate on so many levels HPV is no joke, for 1 out of every 10 people infected it leads to cancer, some of us rare cancers. I cheer on the effort to encourage people to get tested yearly, get the vaccine of you're young and pay attention to your health and what your body is trying to tell you.
I finished treatment 5 months ago for stage 2c SCC anal cancer.

I have not yet been declared cancer free but my oncologist believes m primary tumour has had a total response to treatment, however i have multiple small lesions on my liver that they have put on watch and wait. Still i hope to be declared NED come October when i have my first post treatment pet scan.
What a ride, 1 year ago i thought i was fine just feeling crappy, well I'm living in a completely different world now.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Three years ago I was diagnosed with 3C ovarian cancer. Last month I was diagnosed with lupus. It’s nice to know that you’ve handled a similar diagnosis and are doing well. ✨🌸✨
Lupus is an autoimmune disease, right? Does that make it more likely that your immune system will fight the cancer cells?

Such a positive attitude even after all you've been through. I have some similar symptoms and the one that gets me a little on edge is the rash you had all over your body
That happened to me a week after I had a hysterectomy. I have hashimotos, hypothyroid, PCOS, the left pain under the rib cage, pain in my belly, and also had my gallbladder removed. I get a CT abd/pelvis tomorrow to check something the saw a few years ago and I have a kidney stone on the left. Prayers that you stay healthy and strong always.
I didn't know that it was possible to have type one diabetes for a long time and not be aware of it because I thought that going without insulin at all is like a death sentence . I'm really glad that your story had a happy ending despite all the gloom and doom which just goes to show that things can take a turn for the better and there's always hope!
The nephew’s 12 year old had symptoms of Type I but it took almost dying with a super super high blood sugar, and keto acidosis, for the doctors to finally look into it. She is doing well but it was a close call.
Thank the good Lord that I do not have cancer. But I do have COPD (haven't smoked in 30 yrs) and also sideroblastic anemia. It's hard sometimes when I can't breathe very easily and know eventually one of them will end my life. I was so inspired by your video and literally clapped my hands at the end. You will be included in my prayers for a continued healthy life!
Out daughter passed away from the same cancer. They refused to do a biopsy for months until a doctor lost it in the emergency department she went to. She definitely didn’t receive the chemotherapy and care you received. It was a nightmare here in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I am here mother and help my son-in-law raise their 2 children. There was no offer of surgery and no support services.

Gosh that's so horrible. So sorry for your loss. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry and saddened by your loss of your daughter. It is truly a blessing and a miracle that you are able to help your grandchildren and son-in-law. I hope that by being together, your healing will a bit easier. 🙏 🕯💖
I'm so sorry this has happened to you and your family ... sending love
My Dad had colon cancer. His oncologist explained the cancer cells this way: there are unknown aliens, new babies, crawling toddlers and raging teenagers! They are always evolving. We can get those nasty teenagers easily, but those little, tiny ones are not always clearly seen, so we have to keep going until we get the all clear. I thought it to be a very good and easy to understand explanation. God speed to you my dear. You survived like a trooper!
Your rash was so scary, but you handled it really well. You have been through so much and are so brave, strong, and looking beautiful. I am hoping that you are feeling better each day.
I am also a detail oriented person. I need to know all the facts so I can start processing. Don't sugar coat it.
Your dog in the picture looks very sweet.
I am sorry that after everything, you were then diagnosed with Diabetes 1.
But it is good that it was finally discovered after years.
The very best of luck to you in your future.
You share so bravely and so clearly. Your words will help others. Keep fighting;

I’m so sorry for what you went through and am thrilled with the outcome for you! I have to say, you have had the best explanation of your type of Myeloma yet. Stay well! 😊❤️🇨🇦
I have been awake almost all night with some pain and a very full/uncomfortable pressure feeling under my right ribs.
I was watching cooking videos and yours popped up. I’m thinking I need to see my Dr as my gallbladder has already been removed and 8/28/23 I had a double mastectomy. My breast cancer was caught very early and with the double mastectomy, good margins and clear lymph nodes I didn’t need chemo or radiation, just Tamoxifen for 5 years. I was very lucky.
I’m so grateful you are cancer free now. You are an inspiration with your strength and determination. Thank you for sharing your story 💖
I hope you have seen a Dr. 9:17

Great, informative post. Glad you're better Kate.
You sweet thing. You are DEFINITELY not done, dear. I'm so happy for your outcome. And, you might not have learned of your other diseases if not for the cancer. I learned I had Type 2 Diabetes when I was in the hospital for a gall bladder surgery. Thank God I did! I have been managing it for sixteen years now and feel great. It's always good to look for the siilver linings. I predict a long happy life for you. And you will be a wonderful grandmother!
I’m praying for you! Thanks for sharing your experience.
What an amazing story! I am praying for her now. 💜✝️💜
It does make me wonder that if it wasn't anything we did, then why eat healthy now?
So happy for you and your family! You are so brave. May God continue to watch over you.
I’m so happy for you & I hope everything goes well for you x
Thank you for sharing this part of your life. I’m so glad the chemo did its job! And I hope you’ll never again have to deal with any cancer. You and your husband are a beautiful couple. I love your style (something I seldom notice), and your cat and dog.
