MY SHOCKING SYMPTOM OF OVARIAN CANCER

This is going to SHOCK you!😦

When I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, it was already stage 3. A tumor the size of a football! Of course it needed to come out. That was the first step.🙃

But that tumor was HUGE!

The biggest incision possible and it still broke when it was removed. 34 staples to put me back together. I wondered if I would ever feel like myself again...

You see, I was athletic. Running, lifting weight. But now I couldn’t get out of bed without grabbing something for support. I could barely squat to the toilet.

But with the right recovery strategy, I healed and became stronger than even before I had cancer. It took time, dedication, and most importantly - the right strategy!

Without a recovery plan that used targeted nutrition designed just for cancer thrivers and an exercise plan that was aimed at reducing cancer recurrence - I would never feel as amazing as I do now.

You can do this too!💫💫

You just need to follow a strategy that is designed for cancer thrivers. A strategy that takes into account what your body has gone through and the medications that you are still on.

Well that strategy is the Cancer Freedom Program!

I designed the program understanding fully what it’s like to be a cancer thriver. As a cancer survivor, no one fully understands you, expect another cancer survivor.

I survived stage 3 ovarian cancer in 2023. Currently in remission and on olaparib. It still feels like a nightmare.

I’ve got a cyst on my ovary and my heartburn has gotten worse.

[writersvoyage]

I am 40 and have the following symptoms:

1. Swollen belly with or without food in take
2. Unable to empty bladder in one go.
3. Acidity ( new symptom) in the evening
4. Fatigue
5. Slight pain in the right part of tummy only when I sit in car (FYI: had a hernia surgery in 2021)
6. Slight pain in pelvic region even when not on periods
Had taken medical advise but they told me that since no lump is felt no need for ovarian cancer screening.
Should I get myself screened for ovarian cancer?
Take care❤️

Thank you for this. I have shared the information with my wife. My sister has just been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

Love to all the women out there fighting.

This is so helpful. I think I have an ovarian cyst and have an upcoming doctor’s appointment for an ultrasound, but I’ve been so confused because of the bad acid reflux I experienced when my side pain got severe. I have no other GI problems but have been so confused if a cyst could cause this!!

In Canada, for my Mom or even me for that matter, they would not have done the ovaries investigation. The would’ve stayed with the usual suspects and not gone any further. Which is a VERY sad thing. I lost my Mom to ovarian cancer as they caught it too late: bloating, acid reflux, gastritis ~ a catchall when they can’t or won’t bother to figure it out. They only caught it when one leg was finally swelling and I told my Mom she MUST get it investigated STAT! And that was it. So glad they knew better for you and you’re able to advocate for yourself as a Dr. and they’re more willing to listen and believe. I wish MORE GP’s and specialist knew this. Thanks for sharing. 🦋😊

Ahh this makes me want to cry. My grandma had bad reflux as she got older. Her ovarian cancer was probably slow growing. She passed at 92, but by then the cancer had spread all through her GI tract too.

[MKEB]

Ugh I was really hoping you were going to name a symptom that I DON’T have.
I’m currently waiting for results for my ultrasound. I’ve never in my life had heartburn/indigestion other than when I’m pregnant. That along with these other strange changes I’ve had within the last 1-2 months tells me something is OFF with my body 😩

[neeshapatterson]

My tumor isn’t cancerous atm but said it can turn cancerous if not treated. I’ve gained so much weight, 😩

[kurtwagner]

every human need a year or a 6 months full body checkup after 25 or 30 of age so that you can find any such anamolies or any symptoms at a early age or at a early stage.

When i was in my mid twenties I had "pre-cancerous" cells on my ovaries. Got laparoscopy and had the crysts lazer removed but now I'm in my 40s and feel i have the cysts again but i don't wanna see a gynecologist because I'm just so sick and tired of having different gynos look at my vajaja. Heck i don't even wanna look at my own vajaja so i feel if this is how im gonna go, then this is how im gonna go. Its been a nice life and yes. Im serious. I hate having to open my legs up all the time for these tests.

[JanelleMurray-fikh]

I knew something was wrong with me but i didn't know what was the problem i went through all the symptoms including my own gp didn't know what was wrong with me always going to the hospital every second day i felt like i was pregnant but i wasn't i was bloated

[marym]

When was the last ultrasound done before the investigation of heartburn?

[ola]

I have a cyst on my ovary 12 cm and constant acid reflux. I am going to have a surgical consult and hope it's nothing

[isabellajimenez]

I’m 19 and dealing with that and it’s putting pressure on my bladder and bowel

[Meghnaaad]

Hey doc! please reply.

Can ultrasound detect cancers? If yes than at which stage it can detect?

If not then what's the best possible test for screening of ovarian or any cancer?

Please reply.

[joannephillips]

I didn’t get reflux badly. What lead me to hospital was hitting a pothole in the road caused me pain.

[sims-fi]

I want to as if what kind doctor would I go to?

[brendapeschel]

Im surprised you had an ultrasound. Typically suggest you get an antacid

[Shadow_Gypsy]

Does anyone have swelling in one leg? My doctors don’t know what going on, I had cysts on my ovaries for years and I think now they growing and my right side my back is hurting too. So I was wondering if that sign too for ovarian cancer too?
