Waiting on biopsy & CA125 result

Hello everyone, I've been to the Rapid Access Clinic after having had an ultrasound which showed up cysts on both ovaries and thickened endometrium, and before that (and again now) bleeding. I'm waiting for the results of my endometrial biopsy and CA125 blood test, it's been a week, they said it'll be 2-3 weeks probably but they might discuss my case this week. So that's as clear as mud.

I'm also starting Provera 40mg when my prescription comes through, and worried about the long list of possible unpleasant side effects. 

Am trying not to worry but it's difficult, as the whole thing has come at a particularly bad time (not that there is every a good time!) in my personal life. It's also a bit of a shock as I've been very lucky and not had any gynae problems at all up until December, so it's a bit of an adjustment to make.

  • Hi i get my results for suspected breast cancer tomorrow morning,this waiting time is proving really hard and trying.The not knowing phase!!I work in mental health and am trying to practice what i preach so to speak.

  • Hi no I had my results on 25th Feb invasive lobular breast cancer grade 3,her 2 negative e8, pr8. I'm still in shock. Had a call today got my mri tomor, and a clip in my breast&qtart tablets. Genetic team then will see how big it is&if I should have lumpectomy or mastectomy. Luckily I work in mental health&everyone's so sweet. I've good support network round me. I'm not going to say to you prepare for the worst in case. I did write down things I wanted to know if it was bad news. I handed it to doctor the minute she said I'm sorry it is cancer. Sit tight OK, try to be strong be thinking of you Denise.
