Hi
i have read in numerous places that bloating is a common symptom of Ovarian cancer but have had difficulty finding out whether such bloating is constant or comes and goes. The word ‘persistent’ is often used to describe bloating when a symptom of ovarian cancer but does that mean constant (i.e. never goes away) or just repeatedly occurs?
i have been suffering bloating for 3 weeks or more and cannot attribute it to weight gain (ie really being belly fat) nor has it been accompanied by noticeable gastrointestinal symptoms like wind/gas. Mine is not too bad first thing but does seem to increase through the day. It has been very warm and I know hot weather can cause a greater likelihood of bloating but am concerned as 58 yro woman with a prior cancer diagnosis (bladder TCC pTa G1). i should add, I do suffer with health anxiety since my cancer diagnosis.
thank you
Blue
