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.Julie Aussie gal Wed, 18 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT Hi Aussie gal......I have been corresponding with a young mother (7 year old child) from Portland, Or. who is taking treatment at a Naturopathic clinic for this type of cancer.
