I'm just looking for some experiences with this, or people who have had this and turned out to be nothing. I've been having some symptoms for about 8 weeks now, constant bloating mainly, along with an increase in tiredness and some tenderness in my lower left tummy. 
 

I had bloods taken last week which have come back showing I am anaemic, have raised platelets and my CA125 level is 420. I have been referred to be seen by gynae for a scan within 2 weeks but I am absolutely terrified. The last few days I've had stabbing pains in my tummy and also some tenderness below my ribs like when I was heavily pregnant. The bloating is not that extreme, but noticeable and I've gained 5lb. 
 

I am 36, with 5 children and normal cycles/flow so am really unsure if fibroids are an option. The GP was so lovely with me which raised alarms bells as they're usually quite brusque, and said that it could possibly still be a cyst but this needed urgent investigation. 
 

I'm so worried now. Please tell me of your experiences with this, and what happened in the end (what treatment or outlook you had etc). Thank you!
