Hi Shashari I know that the waiting game can be quite nerve-racking as I had to wait for 5 months to get my all clear notice from my Oncologist. I was diagnosed with Stage 1 ovarian cancer and after...

Thanks to all for helping me through this very interesting phase in my life. I do appreciate all the support and wise words and encouragement. It seems kinda surreal to say this but the final...

Jodie thank you for the wise words. I will incorporate your suggestion into my long list of questions. Thanks for your continued support during this drawn out process. It is people like you that...

So far so good. Where I do believe some of my husband's issues were related to my circumstance, it does appear that the majority of the symptoms were related to his camping trip as he has been doing...

Hello still a few weeks out before I get my final results (tick, tock). I have been preparing for my next visit with my ONC by reading up on adjuvant therapy and compiling my questions. I have...

Maybe, I read your post in the past but was not able to respond as I do not have the same issues as you have outlined. The only thing I can relate to is the long course you are on. It is not very...

Worrywart87 I agree with the replies you've received and take it from someone that suffers from IBS and hemorrhoids. I just had surgery and was all backed up so I decided to use some natural methods...

My apologies my intention was not to increase your worry, but trying to explain that based on what you have stated that there really shouldn't be too much concern until you have been confirmed that...

Anxious848, I'm not sure how performing a physical examination can confirm that it is benign. From what I understand that can only be confirmed by performing a biopsy. Perhaps you would you...

Hi Anxious848, question for you. You mention inguinal and I was wondering where you got that from? I was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia after noted that I had a small lump in the lower part of...

RaiderX, I am happy that you are seeking support as many men try to 'tough it out'. If I may speak to anxiety and symptoms, I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in May after removal of a mass. We...

I suffer from low blood pressure, but to excerberate the issue I also suffer from BPPV (positional vertigo). I never know when it comes, in fact I can't remember the last bout I had. Can last for...

So 21 more days before I see ONC ...seems so far away. My hubby left for his week canoe trip down the Petawawa River in Algonquin Park yesterday. I am so happy he gets a chance to get away, relax...

I was having a very frank discussion with my hubby because of his digestive issues. He noted that perhaps his belly is out of sorts was due to a week long camping trip he has been planning for last...

Hi Jodie See PM. Thanks and hope it works out.

Marian thanks for sharing your experience and I applaud you for being there for your family under such difficult circumstances. It must have been very difficult for you for such a long period. We...

Thanks Jodie. I tried to do the '3 square meals a day' scenario, but it doesn't work for me. I am eating smaller and more frequent meals, but only when I'm hungry. When I try to 'eat for the sake...

Had a nice visit from my Mom and sister today. It is really great to have the support system I need. It was also interesting because the discussion came around to discussing my Mom's increased...

Thanks DWM, I'll be sure to have him look at all of them then. I will pass on the photo details (not my forte) as well. He has been talking about getting a drone for a while now and yesterday I...

Yeah I am so happy to hear the great news! Remember to take it easy and follow Dr's orders. Give a big hugs to your dogs for me. I miss walking the dogs @ kennel and won't be able to until I...

Yeah okay I see your point DWM. I hate zombies and I don't want you to get the wrong idea about how I feel about you. The cat thing...isn't it 9 lives, so does that mean poguy has at least 1 full...

DWM, I always love your wonderful stories about your therapy dogs. If I might share 'my dog' story that reinforces the powerful connection between human and dog.

My husband and I purchased a CKC...

Thanks for your support. This is what I was looking for. Jodie you are right about the 'man card' (no disrespect dudes). My husband is tough on outside by soft inside. I believe he is trying the...

Thanks DWM.

Perhaps if I provide further context it will assist to explain. My husband's mother passed away from lung cancer four years ago. Last fall his best friend was diagnosed with Stage 4...

I was diagnosed with Stage 1a mucinous adenocarcinoma of the ovary earlier this year. This was after removal of a cyst that we were watching for a few years.

I have a very supportive and loving...
