This is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, but there are many cancers that need our attention. There isn't anyone who hasn't been touched by a cancer; either you, a family member, or a friend.
Many of you may have watched, Stand Up to Cancer. This is what we have to do stand up to cancer. Ovarian cancer took my mother because it wasn't detected soon enough, so I have listed the symptoms below.
Many of these symptoms can be causes for other problems, and because there are no sure tests for ovarian cancer you must be vigilant, especially those who have a history of ovarian cancer.
Abdominal pressure, fullness, swelling or bloating
Pelvic discomfort or pain
Persistent indigestion, gas or nausea
Changes in bowel habits, such as constipation
Changes in bladder habits, including a frequent need to urinate
Loss of appetite or quickly feeling full
Increased abdominal girth or clothes fitting tighter around your waist
A persistent lack of energy
Low back pain
Thank you for visiting my blog this Sunday, and have a wonderful week.
Best wishes,
Sandra K. Marshall
