Poor you AnyAdviceWelcome123, I bet your head is spinning from feeling you are going around in circles with your diagnosis. It's good that they are being thorough though and that you have been referred to a hip clinic and I hope that you won't have to wait too long for your transvaginal scan.

I know it is really hard but try not to worry too much or anticipate what it might be while you are waiting for a definite diagnosis. The best thing to do to avoid thinking too much about this is to keep busy and distracted if you can and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. There are helpful tips on this page to help you cope while waiting for important news. 

I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

Best wishes,

Thank you for your reply Lucie, it's appreciated. Unfortunately my referral date for the hip clinic isn't until 30th January and thats a phonecall appointment. 

The night surgeon did feel something hence my admission to hospital but the day surgeon just said the lump he could feel was a lympnode. I have read the femoral hernias in women are usually hidden only detected by ultrasound and symptoms are radiating pain. 

The pain is not subsiding and I truly feel I've hit a wall. I spoke to my gp who's done a referral again for a second opinion on my first ultrasound on the groin revealing a femoral hernia and a tranvaginal scan. I've also done a blood test for ca125. I did full blood work and the only thing to come back was that my white blood cell count was slightly high. 

I feel like a hypochondriac.
