Please don't put away this time, especially when your grandmother was die of OVCA.  Please fina a GYN/oncologist if your are not seeing one. Have had a ca125 done? You may want to have one if don't have yet,  also want you to know elevated ca125 doesn't mean you have OVCA, but most OVCA patients have high ca125. At least to rule out OVCA and focus on enlarged uterus and abnormal PEP

Where are the other masses the found from US?

Also want you to know the final dx of OVCA is from biopsy.  

Best wish

Peace

It is normal to worry over our health. Don't let lack of insurance keep you from taking care of yourself any more. Get help from social services if needed and take care of yourself. I know that waiting on results is no fun. I do it every month. Keep pushing the doc until all of your troubles are diagnosed and treated. Good luck to you. Marie
