Hello, over the past few weeks, I have suffered from constant lower back pain, nausea, fatigue, bloating, and pain on both sides of my abdomen. A couple of years ago, I experienced the same bloating and back pain, however, didn't have the nausea and stomach pain with it. At that point, I was having very heavy periods and the dr. cauterized my uterus. My periods stopped. I have had spotting with intercourse and spotting periodically since the procedure was done a year and a half ago. Now with the symptoms I am experiencing, I am having trouble making it through the day. I am 34 years old which is what age my mother was when she had a full hysterectomy. They did find cancer cells on her ovary, but it was all removed when they did her hysterectomy. Do I have cause for concern? |

First, I am so sorry that you are having so much trouble. Have you spoken to your doctor yet. If not I would call and get an appointment right away and have them do an ultrasound and CA125. Since you have a family history it is more important for them to be aggressive with finding the cause of your discomfort. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Jami's right. Getting an appointment with your doctor is in order. And there's no reason you should be living in pain and worry like this. There are tests that can be done to get to the bottom of this. Let us know what happens.
Keep the faith.
