Had Laparoscopy Surgery To Remove Tumor, Cancerous Granulosa. Scheduled Removal Of Uterus, Tubes And Ovaries. Need A Chemo?

I had Lap surgery to remove a tumor, left ovary, and left tube. 4 days after surgery I was told the tumor was a cancerous granulosa. They also said the tumor crumbled upon removing. I was told that I went from a stage 1 to a stage 1c by discovering the cancer; then the spillage. I am going in for a removal of the other overy and tube, uterus, and cervex, which will be 10 weeks from the last surgery. They are leaving the lymp glands and the fatty flap. They are going in by an incision this time, to feel around. I was told that I might not need chemo depending on what they find. Am I doing what is right? I am 55 with a teenage daughter. I don't want to shorten my life.

Hi, according to the descriptin it appears to be right choice, and after opening only they will come to know whether chemo or radiation is required.
You tell all your social problems also so that the doctors will decide the treatment.
By that time you be prepared by taking green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and proteine rich foods. Thank you.
