Hello,
I'm new here. I recently had an Mri where it was discovered I had a slightly enlarged ovary for someone my age (64). My only symptons is a nagging back ache.
I'm booked in for an ultrasound, but my anxiety levels are through the roof.
Just wanted to tell someone. Thanks for reading.
Hi, i have found that the anxiety and worrying all this causes is terrible. When do you have your ultrasound?
i am 66 and earlier this year found out i had ovarian cancer stage 4. I have just completed 6/6 chemo cycles and have an appointment in a weeks time to discuss forward planning.
i have no idea where i am heading with it and worry all the time
please let me know how you get on
All the very best

Scan is scheduled for 22 Sept.
I've just had a recurrence of breast cancer as well.
So sorry to hear your news. Its just so awful isn't it? What were your symptons?
Really do hope the next steps of your journey go well for you. xx
Christine
Hi Gill,
I meant 22 Oct.
How did you known you had cancer without any symptons. Must have been very scary. So sorry to hear its now widespread.
I had bc 15 years ago and again six weeks ago. I have just had the news that there was no spread to lymph nodes.
Just got to get through the ultrasound now. It's just never ending.
I really do hope that you are okay after chemo and take care
Christine
