Hi Carla.  I'm so sorry about your diagnosis and I am sure this is a surprise.  You are absolutely right to stay optimistic.  Do you know the stage as of yet?  If it is localized, that is terrific.  I am so glad you did not wait and went to be evaluated as detection earlier can provide better treatment and outcomes.  Here is some information on this type of cancer: https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/254083-overview

We hope you stay in touch with us and we're here to support you through this!  Let us know what your next steps are after the surgery. We wish you the very best!

Hello. What did your evaluation from your doctor reveal about this?  Did you see them and did they have an answer for you? There are all sorts of bowel movement shapes that are still normal.  There is a chart used, believe it or not and here it is https://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/poop-chart-bristol-stool-scale  

Has this resolved?

After still have abdominal pains and a uti I went in for a d&c and got the dreadful news of endometrial adenocarcinoma on Tuesday. I am optimistic and will stay positive with a lot of friends and family support. Surgery will be on the 31st. Thank you for responding to my earlier post. Carla
