Diagnosis (starts at 00:27)

When you first felt pain, and that something was off, was the pain located on one side, where the ovaries are, or more in the center?
Are you saying your only symptom was a little bit of pain? I didn't hear you talk about any other clues or symptoms you had.
What test did you do for the doctor to take your pain seriously and do an ovarian cancer test? My doctor just thinks mine is related to endometrial pain.
Was there an ovarian cyst in your case?
How did you find the CT scan to be diagnostically for you? Did they find evidence of cancer on your CT?

Tests / Genetics (starts at 07:00)

Can they do a PET scan?
Have you been tested for the BRCA gene mutation?
Would you mind clarifying your genetic testing?

Did you ever mention to your OB-GYN that your grandmother died of ovarian cancer?
What was your CA 125 number?
