what do I do now?

I have swollen abdomen, bowel and urin irregularity (const.and diahrea), pain in lower left abdomen, indigestion daily, fatigue, and weight gain even while excersising and eating right. My doc found elevated white blood cell and leukocytes. Tried antibiotics two times, no change. Had ultrasound shows no masses. (could they be inside the ovary?) Gyn sends me to general surgeon(says look for adhesions), Gyn/Oncologist says I need a diagnosis before they can see me. General doc says see gyn! Also told no one will do a CA 125 without seeing a mass of some kind. I am 31, partial hysterectomy two and a half years ago. Tired of being sick and tired. I have appointment with gyn/surgeon, is this what I have to do. Any info you could give me as to where to go and what to tell them to take me serious would help. Thank you!

I hear you loud and clear... I too am experiencing similar symptoms and am going in circles like yourself and am still trying to follow up (see my subject - What's the next step). Not sure what the next steps are and am hoping something comes to light soon. Please let us know what they gyn says.... our experiences might help each other and possibly others. Take care.
