Hi Ladies,

OMG I got my results back from my surgery in November and I am so pleased I had that surgery. The results showed that I had cysts in both ovaries and in one tube! Now these weren't malignant at  all but these things can turn nasty.

I wanted to put off this surgery for 6 months as I was so over it all but my onc and gyno both insisted that it needed to be done early, I am so glad I listened.

I honestly feel that I have had good fortune on my side all the way. My BC was diagnosed in a routine mammogram and picked up early, CT scans picked up my renal cancer and it was caught before it spread (just) and now this. It tatts tickets for me as I am feeling very lucky indeed.

Sending you all great big hugs

Donna

    Well done for fronting up for more surgery.  I am not being advised to have ovaries out as I'm post menopause but my gut is telling me to have it done.  Your story is more food for thought as I decide what to do.  One friend asked if the idea of losing more of my 'girl' parts bothered me.  Absolutely not I say - I'm definately a girl no matter what I'm left with or without.  I'm all  for bringing on the rest of my life with the least amount of worry.

    Thanks

    I am also post menopause but had a sister that had ovarian cancer so it was deemed important. Ovarian and Breast Cancer have the same genetic tag they tell me so with this in mind it was really a no brainer, but I really had wanted to wait 6 months just to give my body a rest, I am so very grateful I didn't!.

    Cheers
