Town Bank - Estimated new breast cancer cases in the U.S. are over 231,000, with a death rate of just over 40,000, about 20 percent, which is great news! However, estimated new ovarian cases in the U.S. are over 21,000, with a death rate of about 75 percent. I believe we need an aggressive campaign/awareness for ovarian cancer, known as 'thief in the night,' because symptoms are usually dismissed as back aches, bloating and gas, which most women any age tend to ignore. For your next blood test, add in a CA-125 for peace of mind and a baseline.
