very close to 7 months out and weighing in at 150

I actually had severe pain in my stomach and I was put in the hospital and they did a CAT scan to check it out. They found an intestinal blockage that was presumed to be a result of my RNY surgery. The CAT scan also revealed a large growth on an ovary. I had no symptoms at all....that's why ovarian cancer is not usually caught early; it often has no or very little symptoms. I had pain but not until the growth was the size of a basketball. Ovarian cancer is downright freightening. Your mom is so far past her diagnosis and remission I seriously doubt it will come back to her. As I mentioned, 5 years post cancer in remission is usually the key. I was married once before to a man that had cancer and we were exposed to many patients and families in the same boat as we were. That's where I heard of this 5 year timeframe. Your mom is a very fortunate lady to have survived the ovarian cancer. I'm so very happy for her and the rest of her family because of it.
