Hi
Thanks for your query.
Ovarian cancer is often insiduous and can oresent with these kind of symptoms to start with. You have said gall bladder ultrasound was normal. Did it include the whole of abdomen? if so, then possibilty of ovarian cancer is low. However, more detailed evaluation, if possible by a gyn onc is required to rule out ovarian cancer.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
