Hi all,
I'm 55 and have yet to go through menapause. I orginally was reffered for scans due to heavy bleeding during my period and the scan that found a small cyst and a fibroid uterus. When I was rescanned 8 weeks later (watchful waiting) they found my lining was 11mm and the cyst hemorragic, but could not see any fibroids. I was put on the two week pathway and was rescanned 3 weeks later. At the scan they said the cyst looked good and was improving but my lining was now 27.5mm. A biopsy was taken and I received a call yesterday (after 3 weeks) saying the biopsy was clear but they need to do investigative surgery under GA as they cannot account for why my lining is so thick.
I don't understand how my lining can be changing so rapidly (I was about to start my period at both times). I am sick with anxiety and depression and feel I can't live my life as I'm just constatnly waiting for bad news. This has been going on since December and I am constantly exhausted and scared.
Has any one else been in a similar situation? I don't know how I am meant to cope with this endless barage of appointments, then waiting, then appointments. I thought this biopsy would give me answers, but now I'm stuck in the same situation wondering how long till the hammer drops.
My OCD and anxiety are massively out of control, and this constant uncertianty is doing nothing to improve it.
Any stories or advice from people in the same boat would eb greatly appriciated,
LFrasier
