Ovarian cancer

I had a laparoscopy with right ovarian cyst, ovary and tube removal. The pathology report returned with the endometrial ovarian cancer 1.1, graded 1c. No mets noticed. Surgeon sugested the total hysterectomy with uterus, left ovary and tube, lymphnodes and abdominal fat removal. Very emotional. can somebody gime me advise what to do?

Usual protocol for stage 1C, would be total hysterectomy with complete staging followed by chemo.

The lower the stage the better the survival rates...and you want to give yourself the best shot!!!!!

Please be sure that you are seen by a gyn/oncologist.  They are the experts!!!!

Best of luck and let us know how it goes.
