Ive been stressing over this for a while now, and am waiting results of my papsmear
anyway, ive been sick for a while and want to know whther people think that it could possibly be cancer (overian or cervial) or whether its just endometriosis as I think that it also could be... Anyway here are all the symptoms that I have been having.......

*some tummy pain
* weird periods... I bleed light for 3 - 4 days, stop for one, then get a fairly heavy period for 6 days
*at night, or when im tired I get very sore muscles and joints
*a little lower back pain
*leg pain
*headaches
* dizzyness, feeling like I am going to pass out
*been extremly tired even though I have a good night sleep
*low tempreture 35 degree celcius even though I feel like I have a high temp
* frequent bowel movements (up to 4 times a day and are faily soft)
*urinating a lot more
(if I dont urinate, or open my bowels as soon as I need to go, I get bad cramps and feel very sick)
*been feeling sick, up to the point I feel like I will vomit, but dont
*heartburn
*brown discharge (only happened this month b4 my period)
*black blood (only happened this period also)
*pain during intercourse if my partner pushes to deep
*also bleeding after intercourse if I feel pain
*tummy bloats at time, and I get very gasy
*sore arms that generally start from my shoulder blades and go doen to my hands. Feels like growing pain if anyone suffered that as children and can remember the feeling.
*also a bit of kidney pain, yet the doctor tested me and my kidney function was great.

Please post your opinions. Im so stressed at the moment.
Ive heard cancer generally makes u loose weight, yet I havent.
Thanks all
michelle

I had cevical (sp) cancer and I have other medical problems. I did not know I had cancer until I had an abnormal pap smear and then they they went in and did a test on me and cut out some of the tissue which showed the canceri was not sick then or there and did not have any pain there. I ended up having a hysterectomy(complete) and am nw cancer free. I am not a dr, but you might be having other health problems too. About the only one who could answer this is your Dr.

The best to you! Keep us posted on what you find out. We are here for you! Maybe others might be able to help you more here.

All of these symptoms could mean multiple things, what does your doctor think they are?

Thanks so much for your replies. Im so happy to hear you are cancer free.
Well my doctor still wants to take another papsmear, but in all honesty ive read about cervial cancer and really only some of my symptoms match....
And with overian cancer, ive been told that its a silent killer, yet I have a lot of te same symptoms.
I was tested for pid in feb this year and had a vaginal ultrasound, so I am guessing (and so is my doc) that they woukld have picked it out then....
But really you can never be too sure.
I could be over reacting, but still.....
