    I saw Cheryl Figg passed away in May 2019. May she rest in peace and may God comfort her family and friends.

    Some dr say it wrong,,shes found with it 3rd stage and only little bloated,,, not everyone is a walking textbook,, some people with ovarian cancer have no bloating, not really much pain at all, and some people put lot weight on in stage 1 and 2 and some people's cancer moves to different places,, some people have only 1symptom lots heartburn,,,so these dr.s don't explain properly.they just repeat what they read rough guide,,,but realistically people are not on the rough guide list of theirs!

    I have the bloating she’s talking about and excruciating pain..they found cyts on both ovaries. I’m supposed to go to my gynecologist next month to get a sonogram. Not too worried about it. God has my back

      @@jenniferculipher4058 what test you did to find the cysts? transvaginal ultrasound? or abdomen ultrasound? I'm panicking, because I have the bloating but only did an abdomen ultrasound.
