I (32F) was just diagnosed with Stage 3C with ascites. Went to the ER on Monday with what I thought was severe constipation or an abdominal strain, and my CT results have kickstarted this nightmare. Today, I feel okay other than lots of bloating/looking like I’m smuggling a basketball under my shirt. I start treatment tomorrow.

I’m so scared and sad, I would be so grateful to hear any advice or survivor stories. I cannot believe this is happening. I love my family so much and don’t want to put them through this. Thank you. 🩵
