    Hi, Oska.

    I am a 12-Year Ovarian Cancer Stage III-C Survivor (still working on it) and remember abdomenal comfort after surgery and chemo. My doctor told me that meant the chemo was working, but that was when I was still on the chemo or immediately after...have you seen your doctor lately? Maybe a CT or PET scan could tell you more...?

    Have a good day!

    yes
    My doctor also said
    "it's the chemo working".

    He gave me vicodin for the pain.

    Hang in there, and congratulations for finishing chemo... whoo-hooooo !!!!!

    I've had points of pain
    I've had points of pain throughout my abdomen after each of my chemo sessions (all 2 of them so far). I thought I was amusing myself by imagining tiny cancer squads being taken out by the big guns of chemo. lol...now I find out that may in fact be the truth, Susan? AWESOME!

    Cancer squads
    i imagine the chemo rushing around my body searching out the BAD cells like PAC MAN. Once he spots them he eats them. So all of the pain and discomfort is your very own personal PAC MAN he he he
