    Since breast cancer and ovarian cancer are related, ovarian cancer survivors should also be included in the list.

    I have known of several breast cancer patients who got ovarian cancer soon after.

    I am an ovarian cancer survivor and maybe we can help each other.

      brenchris-

      Thank you for sharing on both this and the High-Tech Mammogram thread.

      I believe there's a strong link between the two. Unfortunately, it seems too few patients and caregivers are aware of the relatively high rate of metastosis in ovarion cancer. Post-treatment vigilance is key.

      Bless you.
