How destressing for you ... Google is an amazing tool but does nothing to ease the mind sometimes.  

Have you seen your specialist yet? 

Thx for response. The first exam they did showed ovaries were clear. But Dr said, when she did hysteroscopy, that she'd seen something "suspicious", and I have to go back in a week for results. I've since spoken to one of the cancer research nurses, via the helpline, who re-iterated that investigations were more often clear than not, but anxiety levels still pretty high.

I think I'd be unable to switch my brain off too.
I really hope it's all clear.

Aren't our bodies a pain in the *** ?! 

I'm glad you've been supported by the nurses

Hi

Ive had two separate lots of post menopausal bleeding, the first back in 2019, just sone pink when I wiped, ultrasound showed thickened womb lining, biopsy done all clear, polyps found and removed also clear.

fast forward to January and exactly the same, scan showed slightly thicker womb lining than last time at 8mm, biopsy taken, all clear...polyps found and removed and sent for biopsy.

I've been waiting 6 weeks for the results and my anxiety has been through the roof..secretary said I had to be discussed at MDT, Google was not my friend..earlier this week I had a phone call to go and see consultant next week, which freaked me out even more..,Secretary got nurse to ring me yesterday and although biopsy not clear this time, it's pre cancerous cells, so will hopefully be a hysterectomy at sone point as I don't want to be going through this again every few years.

Dr Google is not our friend but it's pointless telling you not to do it because I'm sure we all do...it's also pointless telling you not to worry, because you will...but...it's remains that most cases are benign, very small percentage is cancer.

Thank you - what I needed to hear!! I hope all goes well with you, too

Hi 

I have just began this awful  scary journey and I'm not sleeping either I'm terrified - I'm glad I've found this group - I'm 58 and had one episode of postmenopausal bleeding lasting 5 days no other symptoms - I have ultra sound tomorrow ( visited GP weds ) appointment Tuesday at the hospital for results - the cancer nurse rang me and asked if I have ever had a colonoscopy - I've been on Google and imaging  all sorts of terrible outcomes - I can't sleep , thank you for sharing it is good to know we are not alone - the waiting is horrendous 

The waiting is the worst part...legs akimbo whilst they are poking, prodding and having a conversation at the same time I can deal with...hysteroscopy x5 for me in all plus 1 Myosure procedure to remove polyps, I've not had a problem with although some find it painful...but the waiting for results is awful and I don't know anyone who would say different...but please keep that little chunk of light in the forefront of your mind...most results are ok x

Thank you for replying that's reassuring to know - just the wait now - Tuesday can't come soon enough, hope all goes okay with your appointment next week

Now we are back up and running her, how did you get on yesterday? Hope everything went ok for you.

I had my appointment to discuss my precancerous cells biopsy result and as I thought it’s a hysterectomy for me :( can’t say I’m looking forward to it, just hoping they will do it mid August or after as we are supposed to be taking our grandsons abroad at the beginning of that month..will have to cancel our September holiday though, will have to rebook for next year.

Quick update. Had biopsy results yesterday, and it's cancer. Typing this on the bus, on the way to my MRI scan. Frankly, I'm amazed I'm managing to function. I have a CT scan scheduled for next couple of weeks, to see if there's any spread. So it's just another waiting game.  Having read various things, my understanding is that if it's contained, it should be pretty straightforward. Fingers crossed!!
