I had an ovarian cyst about two years ago. My sister has PCOS and there’s a good chance that I have it as well. I’m more concerned that I have a possible tumor though. I looked up the symptoms for ovarian cancer and I have almost all of them except for maybe one or two. I’m really scared. I’m only 17 and I have no idea how to approach my parents about it. If I do have something wrong with me though, I don’t want to wait until it’s too late to try and get help. I also have symptoms that could possibly just be another cyst, although I did just get my period so I don’t think that it could be a cyst. It could even be uterine prolapse, but those symptoms aren’t the same as the gassy, abdominal pain and back pain I usually have particulary the week before and the week after my period. I also have a lot of underarm perspiration. Could this be another sign? Mostly I’m just scared that it might be to late and though I’m a strong Christian and I understand that there is a reason for everything.

I am in my 20s, a non smoker (though my parents smoked). I don’t get coughs often, but when i do, I get hacking and tickling coughs. And they seem to last alot longer than my husbands. I am worried this might mean I am ‘prone’ to lung cancer? Can’t find anything on this online. I’ve had chest xrays before and they are clear.

My sister has been told that she may have lung cancer. My parents and other people we know have had lung cancer and underwent chemotherapy..and still died. she is thinking about not having chemo because she will die anyways..and going through chemo is so hard on a person. Anyone have any encouraging statistics on surviving?

Both my parents were long term smokers who died of cancer (neck and stomach), but not lung cancer. Could smoking have caused their cancer?
