Worried about ovarian cancer

Hi everyone I have been having pain in left ovary area for over a year now I have recently plucked up the courage and had an internal check by the doctor who was saying If I had cancer this examination would be painfull internally and had blood tests and a stool sample and haven't been contacted by my doctor and the surgery I use say "no news is good news" so assuming all blood tests and stool samples are clear.........still worried about the pain which is worse during period and ovulation should I push to have a scan or can I breath easy with the blood tests and stool sample results are clear? Had worrying symptoms of a change in bowel movements ranging from frequent stools to constipation and have been tired recently even napping during the day but was told it was due to my job with working lates all the time! Has anyone had similar symptoms and was diagnosed with either bowel or ovarian cancer? I'm going out of my mind with worry and not sure if blood test and stool sample alone can tell me if I have anything wrong? I'm thinking cyst and IBS but just wanted to ask if anyone had or has anything similar?

I do get pains in ovaries area regnant a cyst was on the scan but no concern to baby. I'm. Sure I've heard fibroids mentioned too at some point. Anywaybgpmsent off for full bloods and I got a letter saying ca125 slightly high so pelvis scan booked for 8th April and repeat blood tests done this morning.  I have found out the level is 38 so I'm not feeling as worried now as know other issues can raise ca125.  Roll on repeat BT results and scan  x  I wasn't aware any of my 'symptoms' were associated with ovarian cancer. I called docs mainly as keep going from. Constipated to loose and the other issues as above.  Stool. Samples all. Show fine x  please keep us updated x
