Ovarian Cancer seems to be my latest big worry. I do suffer quite a bit with a bad stomach and had IBS diagnosed a few years ago. One specific thing which I've noticed though is a kind of strange feeling, best way I can describe it is a muscle spasm, in my lower right abdomen...kind of near the hip area. It's painless and isn't there all the time and it's kind of odd to describe but....for instance...the other night I was reading and suddenly felt that muscle spasm up and then a minute or so later go back to normal. Painless though. No period troubles or anything. To be honest everything's normal, no weight loss and no bloating or anything. But I've just gone and read a website about how vague the symptoms are and am now freaking out that it's ovarian cancer.
I've had this strange sensation for a long time - must be at least 6 years since I first noticed it - I'm in my late twenties now. I had it all through the time I was under the doctor being examined for IBS and I even had a scan over my stomach during that time...though I can't remember if they went down as far as the ovaries. Symptoms haven't changed in that time.
It's been a bit tense today but then I've not been able to stop thinking about it all day, whatever I've been doing. Feel like I'm going mad.
