Hi,
I've had abnormal vaginal bleeding since June last year, before being put on Tranexamic acid I bled for 5 weeks straight. I had a trans vaginal ultrasound in September which showed a 5.7cm cyst on my right ovary, 3.6cm on my left ovary, and an area of endometrial thickening 17mm (the scanner said on the report "possible polyp"). I live in Portugal and my GP there referred me urgently to the Gynaecologist in October but there's so many delays there that my appointment isn't until the end of February. Some days I'm fine with things and just get on with it, especially as the bleeding now seems to have settled and my last period was pretty much normal without me having to take any Tranexamic acid, but am still concerned as I have a constant dull ache in my right pelvis. I know that Endometrial cancer is usually very slow growing and that it's probably only a benign polyp, but still so worried about the wait. I'm a live in carer and previous to that was a district nurse so I know what I would be saying to my patients if they were waiting for results about keeping busy, but it feels completely different when you're going through it yourself. How do you all keep yourself from worrying all the time? Sorry for the long rant.
