what are the odds of this being Cancer...the dr. said the covered ovary needs to be taken out very carefully and whole...given the condition of the covered ovary...should if it is located...have the other ovary out..and what about just going ahead and taking out the ablated uterus which is now useless....we really need help...
She has major medical issues also and being put "under a general" is of concern to us.....could she have a "spinal" and have this surgery done?
Which would be worse for her "breathing"...general or spinal...
Help us please....the Cancer is of great importance to us....is there no other way to diagnois Cancer....
Anyone heard of the "covered" ovary...or "missing ovary"???

for 2 years I was told "we can't find your othe ovary".
but I changed hospitals and well there it is. apparently it is quite common for supposed professionals to "miss" an ovary here or there
Now, as your (daughters) doctor has said that the condition is endometriosis that is the most likely explanation.
my advice would be to not worry about cancer when the diagnosis has already being made as something else.
Endo is quite distinctive.

That is exactly why she is seeking out several drs. and trying to learn from all of them....she did have the MRI yesterday....we should get the results soon....the "one" issues that concerned her was she has lost well over 50 lbs in the last year without trying ...and that did concern the first doctor.
Again, thanks for the help and we sure do hope the news is good..
