Hi , just discovered this group.
Last year a cyst was found on my ovary , when removed it was the size of a basket ball and ruptured , on testing It was discovered as cancer. I was diagnosed with Mucinous ovarian cancer which I was told was rare.
To be safe I then had full completion surgery in April 2025 and got the all clear.
Fast forward to April 2026, after having some pain in my stomach, I unfortunately got re diagnosed with Stage 4 that has spread to my peritoneum, the outer top part of my bowel and my liver with ascites building in both my abdomen and left lung.
I started chemo , paclitaxel and carboplatin in May , 3 weekly cycles , 6 rounds to do. My care is considered Palliative.
I’m 34 and have a 10 year old daughter. It’s been really tough but I’m getting through it and trying to stay optimistic that the chemo will help although I know not guaranteed.
