Thank you Ben, it's good to know there's someone out there, had a difficult night last night but weekend starts tomorrow, looking forward to it 

Hi Blossoms,

It's very tough and I really feel for you. I have an MRI on Sunday and all sorts of things are going through my mind.

Don't lie awake, over thinking things. Easier said than done! Get up and do something, maybe you have a film you've been meaning to watch but never have the time!

Wishing you well 

What a couple of weeks I've had! My CA125 results came back raised and was referred to a gynae oncologist who sent me for a ct scan to see if there were any spread into my organs. I think this was the worst wait of all, my head was everywhere! Thankfully the scan showed no spread, but the makeup of the lump along with the CA125 results the oncologist concluded that it's likely to be ovarian cancer.  I'm having a full hysterectomy next Thursday.  The time from GP to op has been a whirlwind but I can't praise the nhs highly enough. I'm feeling pretty positive and although very anxious about the op (Well more the afterwards tbh) I'm really looking forward to getting rid of this lump and feeling comfortable again. My current frame of mind is peaceful, hopeful and optimistic. I feel I'm in the very best hands and the support of family and friends had been a gift in itself, one I hadn't realised I had. So every cloud as they say and my GP says the lump is pretty heavy so the scales will be happy. And if you're reading this just keep smiling even when you don't feel like it. Go and look in the mirror and give yourself the biggest smile ever, it truly helps me every morning xx
