    Hi
    Hi . I am sorry you are scared (who wouldn't be?) but you've been through so much lately and it most likely is nerves/stress. Whenever I get stressed, I get those symptoms. A lot of people do. However, considering your history and to put your mind at rest, why don't you make an appt to see your doctor. Oh how are your blood counts? Did they ever come back to normal?
    Hugs and prayers,
    Cindy

    Stress does a lot to us
    I am praying for you. It is so hard when something pops up and we can't explain it and we always get scared. It is probably stress. I get the gas and belching too and stress triggers so many things. Call you doctor and check it out so you can have peace of mind.

    My prayers are with you.

    Hi Sandy
    I feel the same as Cindy. Every time I feel bad I just know it is the cancer. Before I got the dx that I had cancer, I thought it was anything but cancer. Now, I always think it is Cancer before anything else. I think in my own weird way, I am always preparing myself mentally for the worst and then when it isn't I can celebrate a little longer. Call me weird but for me, I think it is just a mental protection against the fear.

    You are in my thoughts. Like Cindy, let us know how it comes out

    Ditto Lori
    DITTO Lori..............everytime I have stress or I worry my tummy blows up like a balloon. I know this for sure because I have been to get it checked out today and my doctor said I had trapped wind.

    We are very good at worrying too much about the cancer coming back.........but it isn't always the case.

    When was your last CA125?
    When was your last CA125? Maybe you could ask your doctor to check it, just for peace of mind.
