I am worried about the symptoms I am having...?
First of all I wanna say I am by no means a hypocondriac and I only visit the doctor if I feel like I might be on death's door and even then I am not an obedient patient LOL! I have been having symptoms that are similar to those of advanced ovarian cancer (I have ovarian cancer in both sides of my family). I've been very bloated abdominally, nauseated, aching pain on my lower left side of abdomen for weeks (I have been diagnosed before with ovarian cysts) sometimes I can't even touch my stomach/abdomen without being in pain because the bloat is so bad, I have excessive facial hair (chin & upper lip), insomnia, really bad acid reflux/indigestion...went to the ER for it a month ago I thought I was having a heart attack! I got rx'd Prevacid for it, my periods are very strange but they have been for years sometimes I get two periods a month and they are sooo heavy...huge clots, I have developed minor acne and oily scalp/dandruff and a strange 'wet dog' odor eminates from my hair (my aunt told me she got the same smell before being diagnosed with ovarian cancer), and weight gain for no reason! By the way I am a 30 year old woman. My mom is currently in stage 4 terminal cervical cancer but I know cervical and ovarian cancer's are not the same. Anyways guess just want to know if anyone has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and experienced the same symptoms I am describing.
