To all of those above who have had(urbangal),going to,waiting for surgery. Good luck.Think positive in so much that you are all approaching the end of your journey(out of the unknown)with  so many of you into a better quality of life. For some that journey is only just begining and for those we must give extra prayers. GOD BLESS.

I have a tumor either on my ovary or on my uterus.  The ultrasounds and the mri couldn't determine if it's on one or the other or attached to both.  The waiting is killing me and I realize tomorrow is just going to be more of that.  I am reasonably sure they will schedule a surgery but not sure what kind.  The symptoms have been going on for months and the tumor was found over a month ago.  (yes, I'm officially a looney tune now)

Tommorow I see my third doctor since this started.

You're in my prayers.  You I just know you're going to be fine; think positive, ask all the questions you want, and don't leave until there until you get answers.  Everyone will be waiting to hear how you do.  God speed!  Judie :)

I too have been thinking of urbangal (Mary).  I know her surgery is today.  I am also seeing a gyno/oncologist for the first time tomorrow and I need to get my questions down too.

Good luck.

Well, for me this site has been a huge help and trying to give others encouragement has helped me with my own struggles.  I have not been diagnosed with OC but the waiting, the worrying, and the not knowing has been hard to deal with.  It seems that there are many who post on this site that do so because they are tormented by the 'not knowing', myself included.  Now, as we get closer to getting some answers, it gets scarier.  We want to know, but are afraid to know at the same time.  I hope everyone who reads this will know that my heart goes out to them and that I will be praying for them.  It breaks my heart to read what some of the 'cysters' are going through and I almost feel guilty for taking up space on this site when I haven't been diagnosed yet.  I have been offered support and encouragement from this site from people who understand what I am going through because they are going through it too.  Sometimes, I feel so frustrated because everyone just tells me, don't worry, you'll be fine. Somehow that phrase gets to me.  I know that is what they need to say and what my family believes, but it minimizes what I'm feeling.  Hopefully and chances are it won't be cancer but I wish they would just say, I'll be praying for you or ask me how I feel or how I'm doing emotionally, instead of just saying, oh, you'll be fine.

Sorry for the venting.  Blessings to everyone.

My thoughts and prayers are with both of you!  I very sincerely hope all goes well for you gals.

Hi there!  Been thinking about Mary all day.  Strange that after only a few weeks we feel that we know the people who post here.  I find comfort in posting my thoughts, experience and encouragment. Honestly, it's a relief to know that other women are going through similar experiences as I am. I, too, felt that I shouldn't be posting b/c I (only) have endometriosis, but, over and over I read that the majority are not diagnosed with OC. I cannot begin to know what that is like to have OC. My heart goes out to those who are diagnosed.

I know that before we all found out what was going on in our bodies we were all scared of the unknown.  We have lifed each other up in our fears, comforted with our words and lifted us up in prayer, no matter what our individual outcome may be. The truth is that, no matter what our support system is, people who have gone through something together can relate on a different level.

I thank you all for being here on this site!

I agree with Lori. Best of luck to both you.  I hope everything works out for the best.  Be encouraged and know that we are pulling for you.

Wishing you well,
