Laurie's Profile PageBiographyI was diagnosed with cancer Dec. 2008. I thought I just was going thru the change of life. I also never went to the doctor and tried to hide what was going on. My cousin finally dragged me to the gynecologist. I owe her my life :) Cancer Symptomsbleeding, clots, cramps, anemic. Surgery Description, Dates & Side Effectstotal Hysterectomy Radiation or Proton Therapy Description, Dates & Side EffectsFeb-April 09 Internal (3x) and about 6 weeks of external, monday thru friday.

High ^5 a cancer survivor. I’m so glad your still here to tell us about it and provide support. Thanks for the Add Laurie!
Thanks for responding back Laurie.
I haven’t been bleeding heavily except for the first couple of days since starting to bleed again last week after just over a year of no periods. My biggest pain in the butt right now has been bloating and pms cramping Again! Ug! After nothing for over a year. Sigh. I was so hopeful this whole pms thing was over lol. Will see doc next week and again thanks for your response. Be Well!

Hi Laurie! Hope all is well with you. Love & blessings.
Hi Lori, Glad to hear you are on the mend. Hoping you stay strong and healthy. As women, I think we often tend to minimize our own health but a wise friend once used the analogy of when a plane is crashing…who do you put the oxygen mask on 1st? Yourself, because if you don’t save yourself, you can’t save anyone else. I am glad your cousin finally dragged you to the Dr and that you have been taken care of. Also glad you found your way to this site. It is a great supportive online community. Though I’m not a survivor myself, I work with cancer survivors (brain) and have met so many wonderful people in this journey. Just hear as a supportive ear and shoulder to cheer you on!
thanks for the hug! :)
