in Ovarian Cancer #1

One year ago today, I was officially diagnosed with cancer.  I had gone in for a routine appointment, and they ordered an x-ray.  On the x-ray they found fluid on my lungs.  I was sent to the ER to have the fluid drained.  They thought I had pneumonia.  I was given a CT Scan, and the radiologist noticed a small spot near my cervix, no other radiologist saw it (this guy saved my life).  A few hours later, I was told I had cervical cancer, but a few days I was told that it was stage iv ovarian cancer.

I am about to get another CT scan to see how I am responding to my current regimen.  My symptoms are subsiding, but my CA-125 is still elevated (stable). I have stage IV epilethial high grade adenocarcinoma.
