Had a laparoscopy last week so now just waiting to hear from consultant about surgery. Is it common to have a really bloated tummy. Actually looks like lm about 6 Months pregnant?
Glad that bits over and hopefully the surgeon will be in touch soon . Some people have a bit of bloating depending on the tumour location etc . Are you uncomfortable with it ? Hope you hear soon .
Welcome to the forum. Sorry that you find yourself here.
It is very scary when you first get your diagnosis, but as soon as you get a treatment plan in place you will start to feel a bit better and less anxious.
This group is great and I have had some great advice and help from people on here and on other groups. It really does help.
Take care and I hope you soon hear from your consultant.
