Hi all I'm new! 36 year old female with incidental find of bladder polyp measure 5mm x 4mm...I've taken to Google and now I'm terrified :( I've read that not many things in the bladder are benign! I'm so scared :( docs have given me diazepam to calm me .. I have not had any symtoms And this was found during an ovary scan which is monitored due to having one ovary now ..can any one help? Any stories? I'm just so scared 

  • Welcome to the forum Maw although I'm sorry about the bladder polyp that's been found.

    I know this must be worrying but it's good that it's been found and hopefully the results will show that it isn't anything sinister.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in a similar situation will offer their thoughts and support to you soon but if you'd like to talk things through with one of our nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Fingers crossed everything will be o.k Maw.

    Kind regards,
