Has anyone actually had daily bloating and not had OC?

by 2Pom, Jan 24, 2006 12:00AM
This all day daily bloating is driving me crazy. I have a dr appt next Friday and I tried to get in earlier but there are no openings. Of course I have diagnosed myself (with my internet medical degree.LOL) with OC-most likely stage IIIC. My only symptom seems to be the bloating.
Thanks for any advice.

I forgot also I have pelvic pressure/heaviness most likely due to the bloating.

I had the same feelings and like you web diagnosed myself with oc!! Turns out I had 2 dermoids (each larger than my uterus)  Had them removed 12/21/2005 via laproscopy.  Right ovary was removed along with 90% of left ovary.  Everything is ok, these are benign as are 99.8% of ovarian masses.  Go to your gyno, and make sure you write down all of your questions ahead of time.  Odds are it is nothing to worry about!!  Let me know what happens.

I had daily bloating since 12/3...it was preceeded by nausea/abdominal pain/loose stool/loss of appetite/and extremely full after eating only a small thing...

I had an exam ( negative), CA 125 ( 9) and most recently a pelvic ultrasound...I'll know the results tomorrow or Thursday, but the tech didin't think he saw anything.

I,too, was convinced that I had some sort of OC, especially after almost all the GI stuff was coming back negative. I'm going for yet another GI consult on Thursday after I have ( finally) my gallbladder US...

Anwyay, hope that helps...

Have you had any other symptoms aside from that and the pelvic pressure?

Mrs.lady
BLOATING does not mean OC.OC has many diffrent MORE seriuos and LIFE THREATENING side effects.You may just have minor gastro problems probably not half as serious as OC.
Yes,ppl every day have bloating.
What symptoms have you beliveing you have cancer?Thats serious to claim
