Maybe some signs of cancer

I was ..."inspired", to make this post because of my moms symptoms and some others I've seen. I re-hash this every now and then so people might know what to look for. It isn't always what you think.

My mom had Uterine Serous Carcinoma. She had symptoms not listed on "WebMD", etc.

It all started with acid reflux. I'd say 6/2023 with worsening symptoms until 1/2024 and beyond. I looked back in our texts and it was about January 2024 that I was sending links and finding supplements for "acid reflux". It wasn't acid reflux. Then I thought it was a Hiatal Hernia. It wasn't that, either.

My mom who never went to the doctor, finally went to a doctor. She started with urgent care and it just slowly increased in testing and referrals. Now it all seems like it went so fast...but like I said, the initial thing was acid reflux.

While they were looking and testing for that, she developed a hard belly. She was short and squat and always had some kind of "Pillsbury Doughboy" stomach.

But one day it wasn't soft like that. It was hard. I now know that it was something called "Ascites". I now know that it was 8 liters of fluid.

I don't know how she went so fast but she went FAST. She never really even admitted she was dying. But said she wanted to see the Grand Ole Opry. I scheduled a trip as fast as I could. It was a 3 day trip. After the second day we had to drive her to the ER back home/her doctor. She became delirious and just worsened. A very long, hard story short, by May 7th 2024, she was gone.

She never had any pelvic pain. Never any bleeding. Never even any pain she said. She always said the worst thing was she couldn't eat. Sometimes I wonder if she had yearly "women's" exams, if they would have found it. We'll never know.

Other symptoms of various cancers are itching. More than a normal scratch every now and then. But a big one is coughing. Can start as a small cough every now and then, like hiccups, but can mean much more.

Also an*al bleeding. It is not always hemorrhoids, could be colon cancer. More than a few days of it...get checked out.

So far that's all I've gathered.
