Hello jacks4

I'm sorry to hear that you find yourself in this often difficult period of uncertainty whilst waiting for a referral appointment. We know that many people feel anxious when they are referred under a suspected cancer pathway but it's good to hear that you're trying to approach this wait calmly. A positive mindset will certainly help. 

It sounds as if the specialist will already have some of the important information (blood and scan results) available to them when you see them so hopefully they will be able to give you some information and answers at your first appointment. It's possible though that you may need some further investigations before a full diagnosis can be given. 

If you'd like to chat things through with one of our nurses ahead of your appointment you're most welcome to give them a call. I know they will be happy to offer any advice, information, and support they can along with helping you think about any questions you might want to raise with the specialist. If you'd like to chat with them they're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. 

Keep in touch jacks4 and let us know how you get on. 

Best wishes,

Hi Jenn 

Thank you for ur kind words. I've seen my blood and scan results on my health record via the NHS app. Trying to understand it without getting myself ill over panicky about, well that was I tell myself!! 

Scan results left ovary bulky 15ml  also mentions anechoic cysts. Lining of the womb is 6.1mm. Cystic spaces? 

Blood results ca125 is 22 

Fsh is 175 ?

There are other terminology I don't understand but I'm sure the gynaecologist will explain all !!! 

I'm feeling more positive than I was at the start of the week which is good I guess.
