Hi,

I have been experiencing a dull ache in my right calf muscle and right flank area for about a week now. I have had both these aches in exactly the same places before but never at the same time. I also seem to be burping more.

When I have experienced the ache in my calf muscle (about 4 times now), it always seems to get better after some time. When I had the ache in my right flank/back it also went away after some time (I was actually sent for a renal CT scan towards the end of last year which showed nothing sinister).

As I have never had both these aches at the same time, I am worried that is something serious i.e. ovarian or cervical cancer. I keep trying to tell myself that there is no history of gynaecological cancers in my family and that my last pap smear (August 2013) can back normal so the chances of either of these cancers are low but I am still worried. Any advise/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
