Unusual Ovarian cancer

I have an unusual case of ovarian cancer, as I have some lesions on my tummy. It first appeared some time ago, and I had been seeing a dermatologist and he didn't know what it was. I wasted a lot of time with him trying to discover what it was. I had no pain and never suspected a cancer as I had a recent gyn exam, and a colonoscopy. They decided to start chemo first to try to clear these lesions. I have had 4 treatments so far, and no luck. Has anyone ever heard of this before. I've been to 3 oncologists and none of them have seen this. If you have heard of this please reply. Thank you.

    I, too have an unusual ovca. There is a mass about the size of an orange which cannot be removed. I can feel it and it's very hard. The Dr discovered this during my 2nd surgery. This mass has grown within the abdominal wall. He hasn't seen this before as well. Do you have any growth inside? I wish you well. Remember we can and will beat this thing!

I've been battling this since 1998.
