sarcoma

And yeah, so the further tests found the primary site, which is a very rare cancer site.

called endometrial stromal sarcoma so sarcoma is very rare itself there's only 5 000 cases per year diagnosed in the uk but endometrial stromal sarcoma is um only 79 cases a year diagnosed in women in the UK.

And it's like a cancer of the sort of endometrial lining and it almost hides behind the uterus.

So they call it like a gynae cancer because that's the area.

the chances are at that time were really quite slim of what they could do to help me.

So I then got transferred care-wise to the UCLH in London where they have a specific gynae cancer department and my consultant up there, she's wonderful, absolutely wonderful.

And I just remember going to see her She was like, yeah, it's endometrial stromal sarcoma.

So with this, she's very matter of fact, but kind, really matter of fact and kind.
