endometrial cancer

Just looking for some reassurance really. I have had two bouts of post menopausal bleeding (last period Dec 2019) Fast tracked via GP referal and have had biopsy, vaginal ultrasound and having MRI in a couple of days. Consultant says womb lining 12mm. We are due to go away in 2 weeks and the consultant said to cancel. Are they just being over cautious or should I be worrying (well even more than I am now!) Really don't want to cancel the holiday and then find it's all for nothing. Any advice would be fantastic. 

  • Hi janste,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry to hear of your worries and I can understand this must be unsettling.

    It's hard to give any indication of what the issue may be - I appreciate it must be a bit of a dilemma with your holiday planned. Perhaps the consultant said that to ensure you don't miss any appointments or results. Having to cancel and finding out it's for nothing would be annoying but also ultimately a good thing overall, if it means you get answers and reassurance.

    Ultimately it is up to you - if you're having doubts then you could try to talk things through with your doctor, or at your upcoming appointment.

    Hopefully you'll receive further replies here soon.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
