Silent Killer, Ovarian Cancer Whispers – so listen…
This is from a friend of mine, … have to share with many other friends of mine.
These are the signs of this so-called silent killer:
–watch for Pelvic or abdominal pain or discomfort;
–vague but persistent gastrointestinal upsets such as gas, nausea, and indigestion;
–frequency and/or urgency of urination in the absence of an infection;
–unexplained weight gain or weight loss;
–pelvic and/or abdominal swelling, bloating and/or feeling of fullness;
–ongoing unusual fatigue;
–unexplained changes in bowel habits. Aching legs.
If symptoms persist for more than 2 weeks, ask your doctor for a combination pelvic/rectal exam, CA-125 blood test, and transvaginal ultrasound. A Pap Test WILL NOT detect ovarian cancer.
