Hi, I'm a 33 year old female I've never posted on anything like this before so please be kind. I'll start from the beginning, so on nye just gone I was on a night shift and I was in horrendous stomach pain no gas no vomiting no diarrhoea just pain based on the right hand side underneath my rib. The following day I was seen by out of hours nurse who suspected gallstones and u also had leukocytes in my urine so was given a course of antibiotics. For 2 weeks I still suffered with the pain as well as severe bloating from the minute I got up in the morning. The GP phoned me a few days later and referred me for an urgent abdominal scan. I have also been suffering with horrific lower back pain and right sided ovary pain on top of this so decided to seek out getting a pelvic scan also so that was requested. Jumping to present I had my scan on Wednesday this week then had a phone call Thursday off a doctor asking me too attend the doctors surgery to go through my results as they have found something and it will need follow up scans are an urgent referral to a specialist so immediately I was petrified and upset, I went to the appointment alone and could barely take in what was said partly due to the doctor not speaking English too well although he was extremely nice with his mask also it was hard. The doctor read my full ultrasound report which said I have a cyst on my ovary and lesions in my liver. I was gobsmacked. I was told to make an appointment for bloods done for my liver which I'm unsure exactly what they were as my head was in a pickle but I asked the receptionist if a doctor could contact me the following day to go through it all with me. So, I have been told today that they're going to rescan my ovary in 8 weeks as it could be due to where I am in my monthly cycle but the urgent specialist referral is for my liver to investigate the lesions and rule out cancer and if it is it will be caught early. I'm so unbelievably worried about this. I still have the right sided pain sometimes under my rib I have been suffering with back pain headaches dizziness and fatigue.
I just want to know if anyone's been through anything similar to shed some light? Or tell me what I can expect when I go to the specialist?
thanks
