About 6 months ago i began to develop stomach pain and painful bowels. my doctor told me i had ibs and left it at that. I accepted the dx, however over time the symptoms started getting worse along with diarrhea, nausea, lower back pain pain, bloating, stomack pain after eating, night sweats.
I had a hysterectomy in 2005 for fibroid tumors and cervical cancer. My ovaries were left in. I also had my thyroid removed in 1995 due to a benig tumor. I am 41 y/o
I changed doctors in October 2009. My new doctor , upon palpatation of my abdomen, ordered an abdominal ct scan. At this point i had upper and lower abdominal pain, more on the right side.
The ct scan showed fatty liver with diffuse focal sparring. it also showed a 4.5x3.5 cm left ovarian lesion/mass, with mild free fluid noted in the cul-de-sac. I am sceduled for a pelvic ultrasound and had a ca-125 test done 2 days ago.
i saw a liver specialist who informed me that my liver was very much enlarged and he was concerned about the many lesion over the surface of my liver.
I also have a endoscopy and colonoscopy scheduled for this thursday.
my question is , has anybody out there ever been thru something like this? what was you final diagnosis. I feel los and worried, but also prepared......i just need someone who can understand. Please be honest ........
