since oct 2011 when my rib pain started -with pressure on ribs pain and protrusion-things have got lot worse and dr s wont recognize symtpons or even listen to me.in april I developed nasal infection which went on until dec before I got antibiotics and then I found out that nasal infection is related to some of blood tests I have had.dr said its not an infection.
around june 2012 I discovered painful hard pea sized lumps in my abdomen and my abdomen got bigger and bigger.these have since spread around my sides and to my groin area with pain in the tops of my legs,i have great discomfort and pain especially at night toigetehr with a cough (which ive had sicne oct 2012),some of symptons of ovarian cancer are
cough
weight loss
fatigue
pressure on ribs
increase of girth of abdomen-reason fro any weight gain.
persistant indigestion or gas
I did have scans at beg of 2012 which were normal btu lumps appeared way after this but dr wont budge and do more scans esp a scysts don't always show on them.
apart from gas I have all of these and my Dr wont listen to me so now I have to go private as I am so scared it is cancer and it could kill me.i don't want to die.i love my dogs and need to be there for them.
