Vaginal Tumor Found, need any info possible
Hi Maria,
Have just been though a similiar thing, tumor was about the same size also.
They missed the vaginal tumor at first and thought I had cervicial CIS, then they found CIS in the uterus. Had a hyst for that and they didn't find the vaginal (which was the primary) for a few months.
First they tried inter-vaginal chemo, but I had a systemic reaction, so they stopped that after 3 weeks. Then I had a partial vaginectomy followed by 5 internal radiations. And yeah, everything still seems to work, shorten twice and nuked, but it still works.
And yes again, there is nothing out there about vaginal cancer. That drove me nuts. Just "surgery, radiation" no explaination as to what kind or how it would feel after the fact.
Feel free to e mail me, don't know if I have anymore info than you already have, but we can compare notes.
Wishing you the best,
