How Likely Can Cervical Cancer Re-occur Despite Taking Chemotherapy And Radiation?

latly i have been extremely tired, and my whole body feels bloated. My Fingernails are chipping and breaking real easily, and on my ring finger and pinky finger the fingernail is growing down after it reaches the end of the fingers. I am 51 yrs. old, my weight is around 200 lbs. I had a hysterectoimy in 2013, and they found ccancer in my endocervoix. It was supposed to be metastatic, but that was the only place cancer was found. it was stage 1b. I had Chemo (Carboplatin), Radiation, and internal Radiation the beginning of 2014. I have not been back to the dr. since the last part of 2014. this is mostly because of transportation issues. They said the reason for the treatments i recieved were to prolong the return of the cancer. They said it should be at leaat 5 yrs before it was likely to return.
