Finally got appointment

I finally got an appointment with gynae for Friday, I am terrified that they will cancel the appointment. I have waited 2 months for it and I am hoping that it isnt cancer, I have thickening of the uterus, womb , I have been spot bleeding every day for months, have painetc and my lower back is getting worse. x

    Hi Pabala,

    It probably is for your results. I shall be keeping my fingers crossed for good news. I'm doing fine thanks - no further forward with tests. I got an appointment for a telephone consultation with a gastroenterologist yesterday. This is for Thursday, but I've no idea what it is for.

    Will let you know.

    Kind regards,

    Hi Pabala,

    This sounds better than you expected. It is reassuring that it is contained and hasn’t spread elsewhere. No matter how well prepared we think we are, a diagnosis of cancer always comes as a shock. Most of us feel as if we had been hit by a ton of bricks immediately after hearing this. I hope that you are managing to accept this after such a long wait.

    This is not the end of the world. You’ve got it. It’s good news that you don’t have long to wait for your surgery. It’s also reassuring that they can do the procedure by keyhole. This should make the operation much easier and should shorten your recuperation time considerably. Did you discuss any possible treatment post-surgery today?

    Please remember that we are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

  • Have had m op keyhole, felt great didnt have much pain the only problem I had was my blood sugars went upto 24 so I was on drip and Insulin. I came home 4 days later I think iy was, taken things easy still on insuline just now as it is going up and down but not as high as it went. I am still waiting on my rinse results to see if there isany free cancer cells or if they managed to get it all.

     

    Take care and thanks xx

    Hi Pabala,

    Thank you for your update. I am delighted to hear that they managed to do your op by keyhole and that you didn't have much pain. I am sure that you are relieved to have it all behind you now and I am keeping my fingers crossed that your results are good and are all clear.

    I am sorry to hear about your Diabetes, but this is not unusual and I hope that it settles down now that you are home. This may take a little time.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how your results turn out.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
