A doctor has provided 1 answer
Supportive group etc: First of all, sorry about your suffering. It must have been hard for you. Ask you gynecologist if they have a social worker whom you can talk to.Look at the american cancer society local chapter-if they have any support group you can join to. A counselling will help especially dealing with disfigurement etc. A good pain medication will also help to go through your postop pain. Talk to your md.
