Papillary Serous (Uterine Derived)

I have just finished chemo starting out with stage 3 cancer.  My cancer marker (ca 125 began at 1200 and after my 5th chemo down to 34)

I had a radical hysterectomy, including the removal of my omentum. There were still sand grains of cancer cells left in my uterus.  He was happy with the surgery. My doctor said I have done well after chemo, but this type of cancer is often chemo resistant.

I am a fit 45 year old who has lived and done all the right things health wise.

I am supplementing with naturopathic herbal remedies and feel confident with my naturopath.

Could someone share some of their experience with treatment, give me some hope, positive words to hang in there.  I am on a bit of a rollercoaster having just finished chemo, regaining my emotional strength and focusing on being positive, accepting a new lifestyle with the word cancer amongst it.
