what sucks...and is very aggravating..is that she had a hysterectomy in '13 cause she had endometriosis...so we thought we would be free and clear...but nope....shite pisses me off.
what you stated is my biggest fear...as I have read that exact thing...that it is usually late when diagnosed...which reduces the ability to effectively fight it...

Have they called it cancer, or just a mass on ovary?

You mention your wife had a hysterectomy years ago. Were her ovaries removed? After my oldest sister had ovarian cancer over 30 years ago, I asked a doctor about havin hysterectomy and oopherectomy. Doctor said it wasn't a surgery that is done just in case you might get the cancer also. I though this was stupid, because it does run in families. My sister's outcome was not good.
I believe there is a blood test that can detect ovarian cancer, but I don't think it's done much. Gilda Radner's husband pushed for this test to prevent others from dying from this cancer, but to no avail. Just sickening. So very sorry.
