2ww urgent gynae referral

Hey,

So it's been intense two weeks leading up to Christmas after I visited my GP thinking I was pregnant but I wasn't. Due to the nature of my symptoms my bloods were done and showed low iron and raised ca125 hence was referred for a scan. The scans showed ovaries okay but bulky uterus and fluid build up just under a C-section scar. The GP did an examination too after hence was referred to gynaecology. I am going in this morning for further investigations at gynaecology and I am so anxious and freaked out and though I was avoiding Google, I couldn't help it and that's how I have landed here‍. I've had an abnormal Pap smear test before and was referred to oncology but the subsequent ones came normal. Glad to read some posts though of almost similar experiences that turned out negative for the C word. I hold onto that hope that it is not it and that it's just something that can be easily resolved.

 

  • Good luck with your investigations - I've also been through it and sadly mine was endometrial and ovarian cancer, so if you need any support going forward, please reach out xx

  • Thank you for your response. I am sorry to hear this. I hope you are getting on well with treatment? I am available too for a chat.

    The gynae told me she didn't worry much about the uterus (which was my biggest worry) so am a bit relieved. However she did a repeat blood tests and if the c125 is still raised, then will go in for a CT scan. So waiting for the blood results, otherwise am clear for now.
