I just went through a cancer scare and had some ovarian cysts removed. Here are the links I found most useful:\n\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000893.htm\nhttp://www.emedicine.com/radio/topic511.htm\nhttp://www.cancerwise.org/september_2004/display.cfm?id=f35c37df-ac53-4bc0-ac5511ac88865f3d&method=displayfull&color=green\nhttp://ovacome.jamkit.com/Home\nhttp://www.reutershealth.com/wellconnected/doc92.html\nhttp://health.yahoo.com/ency/healthwise/tw9761;_ylt=AsFgabc6Y97oSXeL5gIYjdEog7MF#tw9761-sec\nhttp://www.endo-resolved.com/index.html\n\nGood luck, and remember that until they biopsy it, you can't know for sure that you've got cancer. I had FIVE test results indicating cancer, but it wasn't cancer!

There are many agencies/organizations that can help in different ways. Some are for specific cancer types and others are for cancer patients in general. The following site lists a lot of these and should lead you to one or more that can help you. http://cellscience.com/CANCharities.html\nAnother which has been helpful to me, but is not on the previous website, is http://www.cancercare.org/services.html

First off, a Pap Smear is very important, but it will not find an ovarian cyst or cancer.  A Pap detects cervical cancer and STDs which are seen due to changes in the cervix:\n\nThe Pap smear is not intended to detect other forms of cancer such as those of the ovary, vagina, or uterus.  http://www.medicinenet.com/pap_smear/article.htm\n\nThese are the symptoms of an ovarian cyst, and when you should call a doctor:\nMany women have ovarian cysts without having any symptoms. Sometimes, though, a cyst will cause these problems:\n\npressure, fullness, or pain in the abdomen \ndull ache in the lower back and thighs \nproblems passing urine completely \npain during sexual intercourse \nweight gain \npainful menstrual periods and abnormal bleeding \nnausea or vomiting \nbreast tenderness \nIf you have these symptoms, get help right away: \n\npain with fever and vomiting \nsudden, severe abdominal pain \nfaintness, dizziness, or weakness \nrapid breathing  http://www.4woman.gov/faq/ovarian_cysts.htm\n\nOvarian cysts can usually be seen with a pelvic ultrasound.  \n"The diagnosis of an ovarian cyst is usually conformed (or made) by ultrasound, the best imaging technique for ovarian cysts."  http://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=8432

woah! woah! woah!  "simple hysterectomy"?  Who's your doctor?  Frankenstein?  Have you had a cervical freeze or LEEP procedure yet?  I'm just recovering from cervical cancer myself.  It took one year and three procedures but I just had a normal pap smear.  Please email me and give me more details...I really think I can help you.  My email is murph_ltt@yahoo.com

I'm a 9-year survivor of cervical cancer.  My diagnosis came from a routine visit and several follow-ups; my treatment was uneventful (aside from the typical side effects), and today I'm a happier, healthier person because of the diagnosis.  \n\nI was relatively unaware of female reproductive health prior to my illness, but I've become far more aware and educated and I keep up on all of my doctor's visits, don't hesitate to get an appointment when I think something's a miss, and have learned to open my mouth and ask questions!  That is very important.  NEVER assume you'll be told everything, and never be afraid to hear the answers.\n\nIf you or someone you know is currently being treated for any type of life-threatening condition, the best things you can do are: Have a good support group; Go to EVERY doctor's appointment; ASK questions - even if you think they're stupid; Don't be afraid to feel weak or unprepared; Look at every day like a gift, regardless of how awful you feel at that moment.

Go to google or ask.com there are lots of differnt schools of thought today, study and then discuss what is best for you with your doctor. You may have time for a secon opinion depending on how it's progressed. Checkout out livestong.com it's lance armstrongs cancer research site. Good luck to you.

I am an 8 year survior of Ovarian cancer.  They call it the silent killer, because most of the time there are no symptoms.  I was 19 when I was diagnosed.  They removed one overy and falpian tube. I went through chemo.  And two years later I gave birth to my oldest daughter.  If you want more info drop me a line.  Also visit the Gilda Radner foundation.  They are wonderful.
