Urgent referral to gynaecology. Tried to chase up my results but getting nowhere. What can I do?

4 weeks ago my gp referred me to gynaecology after having ovarian cancer symptoms and a private ultrasound showing a cystic structure next to my ovary. I had another ultrasound 2 weeks ago and I’ve heard nothing from gp or hospital. Sonographer who carried out scan said to chase up after a week. I’ve tried but I don’t seem to be getting anywhere and I’m still none the wiser to what is wrong with me. The pain and discomfort is just getting worse over time (currently 5 months). Surely if something was wrong I would have been contacted? My anxiety is through the roof and it seems like it’s not urgent so could that mean the structure has disappeared or could it take weeks before I know? I know there is long waiting times but I just want to know whether cancer has been ruled out.

  • I went through this. First port of call would be to contact  gynaecologist dept where you went. They should give you a follow up appointment for results. If cancer is suspected they try to see you within 2 weeks. If you hear nothing then email your doctors surgery and get them to check with dr. In my case the dr knew nothing until he was informed. Good luck
