The disease she suffered from is known to affect older women. His symptoms did not allow doctors to detect his cancer immediately.
Hanna Lane, mother of two, had belly so bloated that she looked like a 9 month pregnant woman. The 39-year-old mother also says she has suffered martyrdom when she eats, but no one could make the connection between her symptoms and the illness she actually suffered from. Hannah had the cancer nicknamed “the silent killer“, ovarian cancer. This disease is difficult to diagnose, because like Hannah, women consult for bloating and pain.
As is quite often the case, Hannah Lane’s GP made it clear to her that she was probably suffering from stress-related constipation. The doctor also told her that at 35, she is too young to make it seriousindicates the Mirror in her March 6, 2023 post. Over a weekend in April 2019, Hannah didn’t not eaten fruits and vegetables. She thought that was the cause of her discomfort. Sadly, later in June 2019, while celebrating her then-boyfriend’s birthday, she had trouble eating.
Her ovarian cancer returns after very heavy operations
A CT scan of the abdomen did not revealed Hannah’s cancer. Doctors prescribed him laxatives. As his case was not improving, his general practitioner also supposed Crohn’s disease. Then a nurse she spoke to suggested the possibility that it might be the irritable bowel syndrome. It is only later that she is told that she must consult urgently to ovarian cancer screening. “After a scan, the gynecologist told me it was probably cancer“, she revealed.
In October 2019, 9 pounds of fluid was drained from her abdomen, at the same time she was told stage three ovarian cancer. The surgeons had to remove multiple organs : her ovaries, her intestines, her spleen and part of her stomach. Hannah got away with it, but had to do a second time in the face of bad news. His cancer returned in 2020. However, his disease can be treated with Letrozole, a hormone suppressant used against breast cancerand will be on treatment for life, specifies the Mirror.
