DO I HAVE STOMACH CANCER?!?!?!?!?!?! SO SCARED…………..?

05 Jun

for about a year, ive had this lump under my left rib cage, and it has not seem to gone away. I am 21 weeks pregnant now, and since i got bigger and my stomach started to budge out, i noticed it is more noticable to as i can feel it better with my hands. Im only 17 years old, and i am a big hypocondiac, i’ve fear i’ve had everything from AIDS, to brain tumors, to blood cancer. My mother has IBS, and she thinks this may be the cause for what is wrong with me, because it only ache/hurts when i am constipated, then it gives me a little discomfort. Or when i have gas it will be ubcomfortable, but soon as i pass the gas, or use to restroom (#2), it will feel completely better, but the lump is still there, HOWEVER, it does seem to go down slightly after using the restroom (i just noticed this today..)
Anywho, i am scared to death i have stomach cancer, or some kind of tumor.. I litterally an worrying myself so bad that i couldnt get to sleep until like 4 am last night, i have a doc appt today.. im scared of what they will say.
I will give some more information about the “lump” below.. but please give me some good, soothing advise, i cant even be excited about my pregnancy because of this worry.. all i keep thinking about is “im going to die..” ect ect. Help please.

The lump is like tubed shaped, more noticeable when i flex my muscles and since i got pregnant. It cannot be seem but can be felt. I have felt flutters, and tightness there on the left side of my stomach before. Last year, when i had a check-up, my doc didnt think anything of it.. I told my ultrasound tech, she said proble trapped gas, and didnt say anything else about it. Ive mad multiple blood test since i have had this, but not specifically for it. My cell count is good, and my thyroid and everything in that range it good as well. When i lay down, this lump (tube-like lump) isnt feelable, (noticeable).

What do you guys think is going on? Have you ever heard of anything like this, if so, please give some good advise, Thanks!

Go to a gastro dr tomorrow and scared to death?

30 May

I have been posting questions about my problems I have been having. I am 33 and I have had an abdomen ultrasound done and also kidneys, liver, pancreas, spleen, gallbladder, bile duct and aorta ultrasound done, all was normal. I have had my blood checked 3 times in 1 year and all normal and that included h pylori and pancreas and liver functions like sgot and others for liver. All normal. Also had a vaginal ultrasound done and it was normal. I guess my family dr said i have a problem with my sciatica nerve, why I dont know. He said my symptons fit it. Well my main thing I am scared of is that I have been having blood in bowel movements, sometimes, bright red and just clinging to bowel movements, other times kinda dark maroonish in it and also maroonish clotty like. I get diarrehea often, and then sometimes regular bowel movements. My dr did a rectal exam 4 weeks ago and said from what he felt everything was normal. I do have hemorroids, he checked the very small amount of stool on his glove for blood and it was negative. I have been having the blood for over a year now and I am scared to death they will tell my colon cancer, and I have waited too long. I know you all aren’t drs just hoping someone has gone thru this and had a positive outcome. I have no weight loss, i seem to gain weight. No appetite loss unless I have anxiety attack. No severe abdominal pain either. I go to dr tomorrow and I am worrying myself sick. My right upper and lower side bothers me frequently and I am taking nexium for that.
Hi Marnie, I am really not worried about procedures at all, its what they find that scares me.

I ‘m scared if I have cancer.?

02 May

Colin cancer has been running through my family for ages. My dad had it, but thankfully got it removed. I’m worried cause I keep getting pains in the area where the Colin is, and I have lots of gas. I don’t want to talk to my mum about it cause she’ll think i’m crazy. But i’ve looked it up all over the internet and i’ve got most of the signs. Please help :/

Most grateful.

Somebody seriously pls, I scared afraid of something being wrong?

13 Apr

I am not quite sure as too what is goin on with me, all I know is I am starting to panic real bad and I am holding it in so my kids wont see. I have been for about 4-5 years had a slight sensation, more of a just very faint pressure about 1-2 in down under right breast and it kinda flows around to side, well past couple of months it seems to be more burning sensation, and occasionally like i have a pin pokin me in side. Now also my right shoulder blade seems to have a constant tingly sensation kinda like when your leg falls asleep, and that is running up into top of shoulder and into arm and also down side of my back. SOMETIMES not always but when i take a deep breath under right shoulder blade kinda hurts. I have gone and had gallbladder ultrasound done and they said it was normal. I had an H-pylori test where they check for cancer causing bacteria and it was normal, and they also checked my liver, kidneys, sodium , red blood cells and white and all of this was normal. Oh and everytime i take deep breath or stretch my back seems to be always popping. I guess I am hoping for a little piece of mind before i go to dr again. Thanks so much
oh and the ekgs were normal
I do use arms alot, Im only 32. I have had 2 EKGS done in last 6 months
I have been checked for HIV when I had both of my kids they automatically do it when your pregnant and Its negative.

Removed Asbestos Containing Floor Tile – Scared?

07 Mar

An aunt passed, an offer was made that would allow us to live in her house and take over ownership so we began renovations. We are currently not in the best financial situation so we decided to do the brunt of the work ourselves. We removed old (25+ years) deteriorating carpet and found beneath it many broken floor tiles and green soft rotted wood below. We decided we needed to replace the rotted board, but there was tile on top. What to do? What to do? “REMOVE IT!” We thought. So we pried up all the tile with putty knives. After wards we decided to look online for directions on removing the adhesive from the floorboards and lo and behold on one website there’s a picture of our EXACT tile. Contains asbestos it says. So I was struck near panic and even though that was a month ago it still wells up now and then. We weren’t living in the house, still have our apartment, and just went on the weekends to work on it but I think all and all we have had about 17-20 hours exposure to whatever we kicked up in the air with the tile. Whatever dust there was I cleaned up almost immediately because I have allergies. We wore no face masks, no protective clothing, nothing – as I was completely unaware that asbestos floor tile even existed (yes I’m an idiot). I’ve found a few similar posts of people freaking out about unintended asbestos exposure via removing old tile, and my one and only friend in the world apparently did the same damn thing so I’m not the only idiot in the world that may have set myself on the path to mesothelioma, but like the title says, I’m frightened. We had the tile tested and it came back 93% Vinyl, 7% asbestos and the adhesive somehow has no asbestos at all. I know what’s done is done and there’s nothing I can do now, but how worried would you be?

Girls, I’m really scared? Please help me!?

27 Feb

Okay, so I’m a little worried I have ovarian cancer or something. I know a 14 year old who died from it, and I’m 13! Also, my mom’s sister died from it. Anyways, for a couple months I’ve been having some minor stomach pains and a little gas after I eat. I usually have a sensitive stomach, but not a lot of farting. I don’t have diarrhea often, maybe twice a year when I’m not sick. The symptoms are:

Early ovarian cancer may not cause obvious symptoms. But, as the cancer grows, symptoms may include:

* Pressure or pain in the abdomen, pelvis, back, or legs

* A swollen or bloated abdomen

* Nausea, indigestion, gas, constipation, or diarrhea

* Feeling very tired all the time

Less common symptoms include:

* Shortness of breath

* Feeling the need to urinate often

* Unusual vaginal bleeding (heavy periods, or bleeding after menopause)

I don’t have my period yet, and I don’t have any other symptoms but the gas. She told me just to keep an eye on it. I’m super scared. Also today I had some stomach pain like on the bottom of my hip bones on both sides but it really wasn’t bad. I didn’t have any gas either. I’m scared! Help me!
Now that I think about it, my tummy is like roundish, but it’s always kind of been like that.

PLEASE HELP! I’m really SCARED! What is Asbestos?

21 Feb

Hello. I’ve been told my living room walls may have asbestos in them. What is this? I’ve heard you can die from it! I have a crack in my living room wall due to the walls being old but we’re getting that repaired. Is it dangerous for me to be in my house if we have got it? What’s the chances you can die from it? How will I know if my walls have it in future?
