East Surrey Hospital Ovarian Cancer Awareness
Early diagnosis for ovarian cancer saves lives – that’s the message from the cancer nurses at East Surrey Hospital.
March is ovarian cancer awareness month and Macmillan clinical nurse specialists Jo Humpherson and Liz Darragh have been talking to visitors, patients and staff to highlight the common signs of ovarian cancer.
Charity “Ovacome” has launched a national campaign to help recognise the signs by using the acronym, BEAT. Symptoms include Bloating, eating difficulties and feeling full more quickly, and Abdominal pain. The advice is to then Talk to your GP.
If diagnosed at an early stage, the chance of survival for five years or more, doubles from 46 per cent to over 90 percent.
