643867 tn?1225298753 Hi, I have a history of hormonal imbalance and my two big symptoms are abdominal distention and fluid retention. I have had a hysterectomy and had my left ovary removed in 2003. I am 42 years old. I just had a saliva test done to check my hormones and everything looks pretty normal. However, I spent 29 days with huge abdominal distention and fluid retention in my lower body and also some actual weight gain.
Avatar f tn What are signs and symptoms of Final Stages of Ovarian Cancer? My mother has a very distended belly, gas build up and pain in her back and also bowel area. She has a G-tube that drains additional gastric fluid, we are giving her zofran for nausea, but seems more uncomfortable the last few days and I am suppposed to return home for 3 weeks, but am hesitating to leave.
Avatar f tn Stomach cancer may be without any signs and symptoms in the early stage. In later stages, it usually presents with upper gastro-intestinal symptoms like early satiety, upper abdominal discomfort, vomiting, pain, and weight loss. However, it is possible for stomach cancer to cause other symptoms like diarrhea. All the best, and God Bless!
Avatar m tn The high risk kind is what can lead to cervical cancer, and men can have that and have no signs or symptoms. The low risk kind is what gives you genital warts, and you can also have that and show no symptoms. If you do get symptoms of hpv, they can show within a month or two, or take years to show. About 80% will have HPV in their lifetimes, though most won't know it. Herpes sores typically show up within 2-20 days, but not always.

Avatar n tn I have been suffering with extreme lower back pain, stomach pain, constipation, diareaha, and most recently blood and mucous in the stool. I had a colonoscopy in 2006 and was told that I have severe hemmroids. Two weeks ago, I could not use the bathroom without a laxative and when I was able to use it, I felt as if I had not finished a bowel movement. It feels like something is blocking the rectum. I am scheduled for a colonoscopy next month.
Avatar f tn Ovarian cancer may cause several signs and symptoms. Women are more likely to have symptoms if the disease has spread beyond the ovaries, but even early- stage ovarian cancer can cause them.
567392 tn?1216751526 My symptoms were from what I thought was an ulcer, but my doctor sent me for these tests because my mom was recently diganosed with stomach cancer. Symptoms- burning feeling and a lot of pain in the pit of my stomach.
Avatar m tn Although I am constantly bloated, I am not fatigued, or have any pains. In addition, no one in my family has cancer. Could one have ovarian cancer without pain or weight loss?
Avatar f tn they are not signs of pregnancy because im 17 yrs old and im going threw the same thing except 4 the coloured discharge withe spotted blood and trying to find an answer so i cn get away frm all the pain:so if any doctor think they know what you have please let me no
Avatar f tn It started with lack of apetite, insomnia, and a bulging upper and lower abdomen with this strange knot feeling inside and weight gain even when I was eating less and still exercising. . I see its all in the stomach are and my stomach is really hard. This came on suddenly. I am now extremly dizzy daily am having indigestion, pain in the center of my chest, (sharp pain), feelings of throwing up, weakness and a strange lump on the middle left side of my abdomen just above my belly button.
Avatar n tn I was thought to have one in June, but when they went in to remove it, it was my bowels and lining of my stomach all knotted up into a 7cm ball!!! You can definitely have back pain from cysts. A complex cyst usually will not go away on it's own and will probably have to be removed. Please keep us posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn I also probably should have mentioned that we have a family history of stomach cancer and stomach ulcers, which is also what got me to thinking this. My diet, when I do manage to get it down, is good - no worries there. I do not smoke, and drink alcohol occasionally. My specialist told me about an endoscopy but he said he didn't think I needed one, so instead, told me to wait. Do you really think it's worthwhile going back?
Avatar n tn well i just looked at my arm and i have a pimple that looks like a ant bite on my forerm and i had the same thing on my stomach. i pulled the head off and it looked like a regular pimple. and i lost 2 pounds in about 3 mnths should i be worried!
Avatar n tn I'm 17 weeks pregnant with my first baby and still sleep in my side/stomach. I still always get 'pains' in my lower abdomen, feel like proud pains and stretching. Its very normal.
Avatar f tn Yes, birth hurts. It's the most painful thing you will go through in your entire life (most women, at least.) There are pain relief options that can help make it tolerable, however, and even enjoyable but I won't lie...it will hurt. You can do it though, you have to...too late to back out now since you worked so hard to get pregnant. Every woman's pregnancy is different, but generally around 8wks a woman starts to get nauseous...
Avatar m tn She had x-rays, a bone scan and then a CT scan which showed spots in her skull, hip, and two small spots in her liver. Could this all have been metastasizing while she was undergoing treatment like this? She is getting a biopsy of the liver this week but I'm not sure if maybe there is something else she should do. And is this stage 4 then? Does she have the same prognosis as a stage 4 who had no previous treatment?

Avatar f tn It is possible that this pain is from something else or perhaps a fibroid or an ovarian remnant stayed on the left and now has a cyst. Yes, the symptoms for cysts and ovarian cancer can be quite similar. The CA 125 is quite unreliable, especially in pre-menopausal women. However, it can give some insight but definitely not a true indicator. I think it is time to get a second opinion and insist they rule out ovarian cancer.
Avatar m tn Whereas in the past, the “face” of head and neck cancer was a man in his 60s with a history of heavy smoking and alcohol consumption, the men diagnosed with HPV oropharyngeal cancer do not smoke heavily and may still be in their 50s or younger, although older men are also affected. Dr. Wirth explains that HPV cancers show a specific pattern as to where they arise.
