Possible cyst on ovary and liver

Hi. I went for an ultra sound 1 week ago as been having pains in my stomach. The ultra sound technician said it would take a week for the results but the day after the doc called said they found what they think is a cyst on my ovary and liver. My bloods all came back normal. He said he wanted to book me in for an mri scan. I now have an appointment for the scan which came lesd than a week later. How come its so quick. Im worried now they think its something serious. My mam died of ovarian cancer so im so worried. Can anyone advise? X

 

  • Hello and thanks for your post

    I’m sorry about the symptoms you’re having and that a recent ultrasound scan revealed a cyst on your ovary and liver. You are now  going to have an MRI scan soon. Doctors try and arrange tests as soon as possible, so it’s good that these have been arranged quickly.

    I can appreciate waiting for test results can be extremely stressful. But I'm afraid there isn't much more anyone can tell you for now. Symptoms can be linked to many different conditions and thankfully the majority of the time won't be anything as serious as cancer, but it is important this is ruled out or investigated just to be sure.

    Easier said than done but try if you can not to look too far ahead and take it one step at a time and keep yourself busy with other things.

    I hope you know more about your situation soon. Please get back if you need to or if you would like to talk things through give one of the nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday-Friday 9am till 5pm.

    Best wishes,

    Celene
