Is Endometrial Cancer a Common Type of Uterine Cancer?

Answer 1

In 1994 at 8 1/2 months pg,I was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer.I delivered my son by C Section & was given a Total Hysterectomy.
In 2004 I had a Pap Smear that came back Abnormal.I was given Chemo for 16 weeks. Everything was fine & I was Cancer Free.
In May of 2018 I was Diagnosed with HIV.Im doing GREAT with my Meds & its Non Detected now. My Blood Count is Great,My CD4 is way over 500 & yes Im still taking Meds for it.
Then two weeks ago I had a pap smear done & it came back Abnomal again.On 2/14/19 I go in hospital to have a Biopsy done.Im NOT gonna LIE,I'm SCARED to get the results. I'm 54 years old & I CANT HANDLE CHEMO or RADIATION Again. I just got My Weight back up from 87# to 120#.My hair Never fully grew back,but I'm fine with that. At least My Health is doing OK,Somewhat.My question is Are there any other Alternatives besides Chemo or Radiation?

I am sorry to tell you there in no other good choice besides Chemo or Radiation at present. maybe sometine in the future.
HIV can cause immudificientcy. Immune monitoring function declines，and lose the function to clean the abnormal cnacer cells.
