Open Ovarian Cancer

I see a GYN Oncologist as my primary doctor. Have not been offically diagnosed, but my last visit in Jan. 08 he said that he recommends surgery because my only remaining ovary is abnormal. He can't see what is going on until he does surgery. I am getting married 04/26/08, and I had started a new job at the time, so I am putting off surgery. Symptoms seem to be getting slightly worse.

Open Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

I have a list a mile long of abdominal ailments. I had ruptured appendix with perotinitis when I was 4 yrs. old, and it's been complicated ever since. I saw my doctor yesterday and now have IBS. She gave me no meds., so I'm a little confused as to what I should do. My stomach seriously hurts!

Treatments

Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Too Soon to Tell

Dairy seems to aggravate this for me.
