Patient Education Center: Symptom Journal

Use Journal to Track Symptoms & Share with Medical Team

AT YOUR MEDICAL APPOINTMENT

  • Take this journal with you and use it to help explain and demonstrate each symptom
  • Tell the doctor clearly what you are worried about and take a list of questions you want to ask
  • Discuss any known family history of breast or ovarian cancer, and your heritage. People from backgrounds including Ashkenazi Jewish, Polish, Icelandic and Pakistani may be more likely to carry a genetic fault that increases ovarian cancer risk
  • Request a CA-125 blood test if it’s not suggested
  • Seek a second opinion if you are not happy with the outcome
  • Take someone with you for support and to help keep a record of what is said
  • Keep a record of your interactions with physicians, including dates of visits, outcomes and next steps
