Ovarian cancer treatment?



i would like to know what can be done

there is loads of treatment but to say them all will take all night i would speak to your Dr he will know what your options and what will be best for you
radiation and kemo therapy treatments if you catch it in time my mother died from that other than that you have to have them removed which means surgery sorry for the bad news but that the truth. They didn't catch my moms in time to cure her. Sorry for the bad news and good luck
personal experiance from my mom
I presume you have been diagnosed?

They may operate to remove all the tumour that they can. This may amount to a hysterectomy. Then radiotherapy, and/or chemotherapy.

Always tell them if the treatment makes you sick: they can try all sorts of anti emetics to help with that.

Ovarian is a 'quiet' cancer, so it may be that you have one that is fairly advanced, because it does not give symptoms early, but all cancers are treatable.

They may want to do do scans, like CT or MRI. These are no problem, so don't listen to any crap that you may be told to the contrary! You just have to hold still and be good at being bored!

Whilst you are off work, remember that you can claim several benefits: see the hospital social worker for guidance. And remember that you can get a 'season ticket' for your take-away prescriptions. That will save you quite a bit of money.

If you are interviewed regarding a benefits claim, remember that they are interested in how you feel at your worst: don't be too brave about how you may feel, or you may not qualify for the benefit.

Be positive! A positive attitude and keeping your spirits up are essential, as they help your body to fight. Really.

Your treatment could be lengthy, so look after yourself - eat healthily, etc.

Good luck.
