Is my period mundane?


I am an ovarian cancer survivor. I was diagnosed contained by 2005 when I was 54. I have a total hysterectomy and chemo. I joined an ovarian cancer support group past I started chemo and that was one of the best gifts I give to myself. There were women within the group who were 17-25 year survivors of stage 3 cancer..,..,which way they were diagnosed and have chemo 17-25 years ago when chemo was inferior it is today. So YES THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY SURVIVABLE! Please check with your oncologist BEFORE chemo and ask if they enjoy ovarian cancer support groups in your town. I never required to hear the "c" word....I had never have surgery, perfect strength, hate pills, so the thought of the "c" word, surgery and chemo.I be horrified. Cried the entire first visit to the cancer center. But, I hold to say, I enjoy had the flu that be worse than chemo...not that I would want it again,..but, it was not as impossible as I thought it would be. I will be happy to answer any question you have. NO STRESS,. Happy thoughts. This too shall intervene.
