Cystic Solid Masses
Comments
-
My masses were "solid tumors" and were malignant on both ovaries. They did a needle biopsy with a CT scan to diagnose it after finding it on a reg. CT scan. I would ask if they had run a CA-125 blood marker test and what the results are even though that test is not a good marker for everyone. I was not told too much but given lots of brochures at the first meeting. I had too many tumors for surgery and had to start with chemo. You are welcome to e-mail me by clicking on the envelope and sending it to "Saundra"0

Don't worry too much right now. Sounds like there are several possibilities. Any other symptoms? Have you ever had a CA125 blood test? How about endometriosis or polycycstic ovarian disease?
Depending on what you've been experiencing, you might know better what to ask than we would. But from my point of view I would certainly ask if there is a chance that this is cancer? As in Saundra's cause, they were able to biopsy. Maybe for you also?
Please be sure to let us know what you find out.
I'll be praying for some good news for you, and that you have peace and strength to get through this.
Sending luv and hugs your way!

OK, This is my very first shot at replying to someone. This is suppose to be a reply to Saundra. I tried the email thingy and it's not available or something. I hope you all see this. I have tears in my eyes, because I feel SO ALONE and with you all writing me it means SO MUCH. I'll keep this short for now in case this doesn't work. Once I get use to this and it works right for me or me working right with it I should probably say too.... LOL I will fill you all in on what I've been through up to now. GOD BLESS YOU ALL OVERLY AND ABUNDANTLY FOR MAKING ME FEEL LIKE SOMEONE IS THERE FOR ME. You just DON'T KNOW........saundra said:My masses were "solid tumors" and were malignant on both ovaries.

This is for Monika, THANK YOU for your sweet encouraging message. God really has BLESSED us with wonderful people in this world and I Thank Him for you ALL!!! I saw my message to Saundra under where she wrote me, so I guess I'm doing this right, right....? Let me know, OK? THANK YOU... I'll write more later once I see that you all are getting these and I'm in fact doing it right. The envelope emailing thingy still isn't working. I know some sites like to act up sometimes. Also, pray my computer stays up and running. I went without for a couple months with taking it back and forth with break downs. I REALLY NEED this thing right now. Hope you all are having a GREAT DAY!!!mopar said:Don't worry too much right now. Sounds like there are several possibilities. Any other symptoms? Have you ever had a CA125 blood test?

This is to Nancy. I'll keep this short until I know you all are able to get these. I've been monitored since Sept 2006 with Ultra Sounds and a CT. The last Ultra Sound was Feb 12th which is now showing I have a Complex Solid Mass on my right ovary. I just found out yesterday that the cyst that just started on my left is also complex. I've been dealing with the usual PAINS and DISCOMFORTS that come with all this. I'll write a lot more once I know I'm doing this right. THANK YOU TO YOU ALL!!! God Bless you ALL for giving me this PEACE, STRENGTH, SUPPORT AND FRIENDSHIP that I feel so much that I need right now.unknown said:This comment has been removed by the Moderator

Just try to stay in this one day at a time. These ladies were my lifeline to sanity and consolation and most important information. I also felt so "alone" and betrayed because I had always gone for my annual check-up and never had any problems. It is so good to have this discussion group and prayer support to go to.

Joanne, I "think" I'm starting to understand how this stuff works a little bit. The envelope part of this still hasn't been working for me. I see I have new messages also and it won't let me to them. Hopefully it'll work soon. I guess I'll have to try and find where it was you wrote me in a different thread. I don't know what other thread I wrote in. LOL I'll learn as I go. THANK YOU for telling me that you all are there/here for me. I truly appreciate it!!! I've known since Feb 19th that it's 50/50 chance of cancer. I'm just waiting the up coming oncologist appt on March 13th to see what steps we'll be taking. I HAVEN'T told my husband, because he gets SICK with stress. I CAN'T handle that right now. I've told my sister who lives far away and one close friend here. Now....I'm SO THANKFUL to have found this website. I called the American Cancer Society and gave them my email address. From there I've sent them many questions and they have sent me website information like this to check out for help and support. It's NERVE RACKING to think in a few weeks or so I could be told I have cancer. It's a VERY STRANGE PLACE TO BE. What am I suppose to think, feel, do, act like? It's totally WEIRD!!! It does get you thinking and it surprisingly enough for me I thought wouldn't change my views on things, but IT DEFINATELY HAS. You think about if it isn't cancer what things and changes you'll make in your life. If it is what will you actually do, think and feel. How will the people in your life be there for you and support you in your decisions on how to deal and handle things to come. Crazy... Well, I'm going to go for now to get some much needed things done here at home. I'm EXTREMELY THANKFUL to this site and ALL OF YOU!!! THANK YOU ALL!!!floridajo said:Hi,
I addressed you when you replied in a different thread,so I don;t want to repeat myself. Just know we are there for you,and you can click on the envelope and be able to contact any of us personally. Good luck..I'll keep you in prayer..(((hugz))>>Joanne0 -
I am trying to take it one day at a time. I woke up feeling pains first thing and when that happens it's HARD not to think about things. I'm also wondering how many of you all had this kind of time before finding out that it was cancer. I just wrote Joanne about what I've been kindda going through if you want to read down lower. Another thought I've been having is..."What RIGHT do I have to be on here when I haven't even been told I do have cancer and you all have been through SO MUCH"!!! I'm so overwhelmed with thoughts and feelings at times it's CRAZY!!! Does this make sense??? Did any of you have this unknown time before hand of finding out to DRIVE YOURSELF CRAZY with the NOT KNOWING??? Then if I'm told it's not cancer I think of all of you and it's not fare. My mind is racing in so many directions. I try not to get worked up, but I need to get away from this computer and get busy. I'll check in with you all later. Consider yourselves ALL HUGGED!!! By the way...I've been told I give the BEST HUGS. :-)saundra said:Just try to stay in this one day at a time. These ladies were my lifeline to sanity and consolation and most important information.

Hello. So good to meet you, but like all of us say, it's too bad it has to be on this site. I just wanted to let you know that in the past I have had a lot of trouble retreiving e-mails, sending them, etc. "Dana" from CSN (this site) advised me to try and turn off my pop-up blocker and see if that helped. Well, that did the trick!!! So, here's hoping that the same will work for you. Like all of us here, I'm hoping and praying that you get good news. I, too, am a terrible worry-wart, so I well know the pain you are experiencing. Take good care, Keelie aka MM.lady342008 said:Joanne, I "think" I'm starting to understand how this stuff works a little bit. The envelope part of this still hasn't been working for me.

Hello Keelie, Thank you for writing. I've done a lot of replying to the different people that have written to me on the different messages I posted. If you want you can check them out and catch up on any information you didn't know about that I've already shared.Keelie said:Hello.

It's hard not worrying especially when I don't have a physical support team to get me through anything bad. It's just basically me, my husband who has to work and we have a 12 yr old son to be concerned about. It's things like not being near family and having your friends that have all moved away to make things even harder on you and more scary. I have one good/close life long friend here, but she's about a half hour away and has so much on her own plate with working several jobs and her family issues.
We'll see how it all turns out. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WRITING.
You take good care yourself and I hope to keep up with each and everyone and LISTEN to all of you as well. I RATHER do for others than have others do for me, so being in a position of need is hard for me.
Have a great day. :-)0
