Hello!

thank you for responding- we are in the same boat. I am annoyed with myself for not going to GP earlier - I now look at symptoms and so many things should have told me to go to GP and I simply went cause I could not shift a water infection. May I ask what prompted you to go to GP? I had to wait ten days for my scan - but I drove home from that scan and as I walked through front door my GP phoned me to say I was on cancer pathway via NHS - go back on 17th but I cannot fully remember what she told me. I will call tomorrow and see if she will repeat what she told me on Friday.

I am 54 - post menopausal, can remember the GP telling me lining of womb was in excess of 10mm. I did have to call hospital and progress my appt for scan and they had the wrong address for me - apparently hospital has different database to GP!! Letter went to where I lived four years ago! So glad I phoned to find out what was happening. Take care to you too and maybe it’s worth phoning hospital to check your referral is there?

hi laney

Appreciate your reply

I thought my `pains` were part of my ME / CFS, so did not really think they would be anything else, cos got sick of being told ` its the CFS / ME / FM`.  We also had a lot of upset with my dad recently being very ill very quickly and subsequently being diagnosed with leukemia - thankfully all is going well for him at the moment, with monthly check ups etc.  I had pelvic pain, which i put down to pelvic arthritis issues, hip arthirtis etc, but then started with agonising pain in my rectum at the same time as the frontal area.  When pains were bad i had frontal discharge which was pinky, and not pleasant.  I went to GP and had an ultrasound which showed a polylp and thickening of the endometria / womb lining .  Went for hysteroscopy, the polyp was too large to take out in an outpatients setting, so did biopsies.  A week later got a call on a friday aft to see consultant on monday.  Told womb cancer, biopsies `very abnormal` - treatment  needed within a 4 week period.  Went for MRI to see if spread to other pelvic areas , etc, thankfully has not.  Got my pre-op date and pencilled in surgery date - all just one day over the 4 wek period.   Hoping the hysterectomy can be done by key-hole, quicker recovery etc .  Thanks for your response, take care, x

The eldest came back home few months ago after split with girlfriend, my 22 year old at home coz he has aspergers, my 13 and 9 year old at home, so busy household, I'm the glue that holds everyone together so really scared if I have to have operations or treatment, I'm worrying more about the impact on them rather than myself

Sorry Hun can’t remember do uhave a partner or supportive family ? X

Yeh I'm married, hes very supportive, but I'm only at stage of waiting results, who knows how it will if I get bad news 

I had some lady message me today she’s beendiagnosed like me and hasn’t seen her kids for 10 yrs felt sorry for her.  I waited  9 days for my results x

Was that 9 days from when you had hysteroscopy?

Yes.. sorry I don’t know ur name I’m Lesley x

I'm emna

Emma !!

So hopefully I'll get results next week, although the hospital said could take up to 4 weeks coz there so overloaded, if I get results quicker is that bad news? My head is so muddled and fuzzy and confused, I think I'd cope better when I know what I'm facing rather than the not knowing

Yes that’s exactly like me I have been diagnosed but depending how bad is to what hospital I go to.  I don’t think there expecting urs to be anything if there no rushingit through. Have u been told ur on the cancer pathway ? X

No, he just said he was expecting to remove a polyp but no polyp was there, he then said he needed to take a biopsy

I wouldn’t worry too much I had spotting of blood post menopausal that’s why I was sent x

I guess what will be , will be, the waiting for results is horrible but it's not going to change the outcome

Yes ur right there as wesaid we can all support each other im having my MRI and CT straight after each other tomorrow x

Thinking of you 

How was today? Thinking of you
