A best friend of mine, passed after a horrific fight with ovarian cancer. Both of us took clomid during our fertility work ups and I took perganol with an unsuccessful IVF in the 1980's. Like the women with the braca gene, afraid of getting cancer and having a complete mastectomy, I wonder if I should have my ovaries removed, due to the overstimulation of my ovaries, through in my early thirties. Perhaps, I should just live by faith alone.
I am 2 years out from ovarian cancer Stage 3c-had a big surgery and chemo therapy. Still feel exhausted, partly because of so many checkups and Blood Tests! But my cancer dr. Just mentioned at my last visit that it could come back ( some of the contamination could have been missed) and since I had some very small breast lumps (lumpectomy) and a recent colonoscopy taking out 4 precancerous polyps I am bracing but don’t know either how common recurrence is.I am about to be 77. Would like to hear some others’ experience with this.
