    Ovarian cancer scare maybe

    I don't know if I should be worried, wait it out or go see my Dr. I've been having pretty severe right side ovary pain the last few days. Also, I've been bloated, had stomach pain, diarrhea, no appetite, back pain, tired all the time and recently lost 15lbs.

    I would get it checked out right away, even going to the emergency room or to urgent care. Your symptoms are also consistent with appendicitis. A friend at work had that as an adult and it almost killed him. Not to be alarmist, but get it checked right away.

      Thank you for your response. I will get it checked out. I don't have an appendix anymore so it's not that.

        Glad to know that it isn't your appendix. Use your own best judgement as to how soon to get help but I still would urge sooner than later. There are probably quite a few things that could have many of the symptoms.

          Hi everyone, I’m not sure if I should be worried or see my doctor. I’ve had severe right side ovary pain for the last few days, plus bloating, stomach pain, diarrhea, no appetite, back pain, fatigue, and I’ve recently lost 15 lbs. With all these symptoms together, it might be best to consult your doctor sooner rather than later. These could be signs of something serious that needs immediate attention. Better to be safe and get checked out. Anyone else experienced something similar?

            Welcome to WH Interactive Forums. I would get to a doctor as soon as possible. Diarrhea and a loss of appetite along with the rest of the symptoms may leave you weak without a path to recovery.
