Just Don't Know What To Do

Well here is the situation. I went to the doctor a couple months ago because of an ongoing pain in my abdomen, especially when I sit in my car, or kneel in church. I have pain from hip to hip. I am only 31 and not overly overweight (maybe 20 lbs). She did a pap and internal exam and said "It may be endometriosis." At the time I didn't tell her that I also have dull back pain, hot flashes, night sweats, almost daily nausea, I feel bloated, and now, well, I am not sure how my abdomen is suppose to feel, but when I press down it feels firm, and also harder on my left side. Should it? My doctor is new and young, and I do not feel comfortable with her, but the symptoms tend to be getting worse. I have tried to get in to another doctor, but the time span is longer than I want to wait (A month and a half). What should I do? Should I keep checking with other doctors in the area? Should I call my doctor back and tell her my other symptoms? I live in a rural town, so availability is slim!!
Please let me know what you think!

I would go back to your doctor and tell her the rest of the symptoms, especially about how firm your abdomen is. I had that and it turned out to be ovarian cysts and also one stage 1C tumor. You could ask her to get some support/assistance (advice on ovarian cancer) from another doctor. Based on your symptoms another doctor may make time for you earlier. I had an ultrasound and when the gynecologist got the resulst from my doctor she immediately made room in her schedule to see me in less than a week. You may need to travel to a larger city to get an ultrasound and CA125 blood test but it's all worth it.

You definitely need to tell your doctor every thing you feel. Even if you think it is very insignificant. My stomach was as hard as a rock for about a year. My doctor told me I probably had irritable bowel syndrome. It turned out to be a 17 pound malignant tumor growing off one ovary. I had stage 1C ovarian cancer. I was very blessed that it wasn't worse, especially because I waited so long. Don't wait...if you're not getting answers that make you comfortable then insist that your doctor make an appointment for you with a specialist. Women (unfortunately) are sometimes forced to take matters into their own hands regarding certain cancers.
Take care1

Get blood drawn and tested for your ca125 count. The Dr. will get the result the same day. Good luck, Anita
