Woman, 26, devastated to learn her ‘bloated stomach’ is ovarian cancer
A YOUNG woman was filled with horror when she discovered her supposed IBS was ovarian cancer.
Sarah Nicholson, 26, from Newcastle, had been suffering from severe bloating for a while, along with abdominal pain, tiredness, and a change in her toilet habits.
This led her to believe that she suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, as she had all of the symptoms.
However, following a scan it was revealed that Sarah actually had two large tumours in her ovary.
One was 10lbs, which is the same size as a rugby ball, and the other 4lbs, roughly about the size of an orange.
The devastating news meant that Sarah had some big decisions to make about her future.
Sarah was told she would not be able to have children if she underwent a hysterectomy, as well as the removal of the tumours.
Speaking about her decision, Sarah told Metro: "I had meetings to discuss what I could do next and to talk about my fertility, I was asked if I wanted to have a hysterectomy.
"For me it was a no brainer and I decided to have it. I did not want the risk.
"It was a difficult decision to make and it was upsetting because it would mean I would never have children of my own."
When Sarah visited her GP and was given the diagnosis she said that she had prepared herself for bad news.
"They said I was at stage three – that’s one stage away from being terminal.
"This was really serious and I knew it was going to affect my future."
The brave young woman is urging others to be aware of the symptoms of ovarian cancer, and wants to highlight that although it is uncommon in women under 50, it still happens.
"Ovarian cancer is known as the ‘silent killer’ because the symptoms are often put down to less severe medical issues," she said.
