YOLANDA240 13 Posted September 19, 2011 So sorry to hear that, but very happy it was caught in stage 1. I will keep you in my thoughts on the 23rd. I was sleeved on aug 30th , so it has been 2 weeks, yes i went through the 1st week of ahhhhhhhhh really, did i really do this to myself, but wow in 2 weeks i am a new woman, anyway day 8 comes and my surgon calls to tell me that i have cancer, its called gist, they found it on the outside of my old tummy when she pulled it out, they are pretty sure it was not in the shedding stage, and it was very small in the 1st stage so now i am off to the cancer clinic on the 23rd, i am praying that it was the only one, so what i want to say is the sleeve saved my life..............they said it would of never been found had i not had the sleeve, and that would not have been good..

Khy 16 Posted September 19, 2011 Please let me know how you are doing. I had uterine CA stage 2 about 2 years ago. They are pretty sure they got it all. Keep a positive attitude. Stage one... you can beat this, I know you can! Send me a message if you need to talk. I know how scared I was but now I dont think about it as much. Praise be they found it this early.
