Can’t believe how this girl was fobbed off for so long…
So many Dr's ignore the symptoms I'm telling them because to them I'm young and healthy. I've had numerous Dr's be very rude and say oh you're too young to have that, young people don't get cancer. And then if you say anything back to that because obviously young people do get cancer then they say you're being argumentative.
And my mother had ovarian cancer.
I have large masses on both my ovaries - they keep saying they "look" like cysts. They keep giving me ultrasounds and won't do anything further.

Ovarian cysts are very common; ovarian cancer is not. Try taking birth control pills for ninety days. This should resolve any cysts. If it does not, tell your doctor that you want your ovaries removed surgically.
