Signs all leading to cancer

I’ve been having number of issues from extremely heavy periods and pain, lower back pain, feeling tired, feeling full straight away and more. On top of recently losing weight without trying. 

Last week, I had a US Pelvis and Transabdominal/vaginal ultrasound scans. I was told to expect results within a week or so. 

However, I got a call next day saying GP wanted to see me urgently face to face. 

The day after I saw my GP and they explained that my right ovary is enlarged. It contains a heterogeneous lesion and appears to contain droppler flow within. I have free pelvic fluid and my endometrium is thickened way above what should be. I can’t really remember everything as I was in shock. She basically said there’s a number of things concerning, and could be ovarian cancer. 

My GP has put in a urgent request for Fast Track Cancer referral. She was lovely and explained I should get apt and been seen within 2 weeks given urgency.  She told me to prepare for many tests ahead.

I’m not sure how I feel. Obviously google doesn’t help as always gives the worst but honestly has anyone had anything similar? Should I prepare myself for worst case? If it’s not cancer what else could it be? 

Can anyone confirm process and potentially tests il be having? My gp mentioned CT scans etc but honestly the conversation is a blur right now

  • Hi, I had a similar conversation with my doctor about high markers/Bowel cancer, 2 weeks ago. I am going for tests now next week as I was on the 2 week pathway. I know it is so scary when you hear the cancer word, I am absolutely terrified, but this group chat has put my mind to rest, when you know your not alone in your journey it helps immensely. Goodluck with all your tests and keep dipping into the chat. It really makes me less anxious xxx
