Hi
I’m new here and hoping to get some advice please?
I’m 55 and post menopausal but since early June I’ve had several bouts of bleeding and spotting. After visiting my GP I was referred to the Gyne unit and on 24th July I had ultrasound scans and a hysteroscopy. They found 3 reasonably large polyps and said my wall was quite thick (18mm), they took a biopsy and said I’d get the results in the post. I was then referred for polyp removal under general anaesthetic.
On 2nd August I had the polyps removed and again I was told that they would be tested and I’d get the results in the post.
I now don’t seem to be able to think of anything other than the results! I feel ridiculous worrying about it when there’s so many people on here that have had their diagnosis and are going through their treatments.
I just wondered how long is normal for the results to come through? And is it always by letter? I’m constantly preoccupied by this and the two friends I’ve confided in just say I’m worrying over nothing and won’t discuss it with me - I know they think they are helping but they don’t understand that I feel I need to talk about it!
Any advice will be so gratefully received!
