Gynecology appointment after pelvic ultrasound

Hi I had a pelvic ultrasound done one the 14th December because of heavy bleeding, bleeding between period, pelvic pain. I have previously had surgery to drain an ovarian cyst and I have also had cin2 and hpv  without treatment years ago. I went go and the nurse said its probably cervical erosion and I was referred for a scan in February 2023 because the bleeding hadn't stopped. After finally having my pelvic ultrasound on 14th December 2023 I received an appointment to see the gynecologist next Thursday 11th January 2024.this is in the hospital 2 hours away instead of just seeing my GP so I'm worried why they would want me to go there? Would anyone have any experience of this? Would it just be routine if everything is fine? Slightly worried as it took most of the year to get the pelvic scan yet barely a few weeks to have the appointment, they said they sent for the appointment the day of my scan. I'm only 32 but have had alot of gynecology issues so my mind is going overdrive. 

  • Hi Smellyjelly,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I can understand your concerns, and I know it's never easy dealing with this uncertainty. It's difficult to advise on what may happen at the appointment - though it is quite common to have a face-to-face appointment to discuss results. As for why it is at that particular hospital, again I am not exactly sure, but perhaps you are seeing a specialist who will be more suitable to discuss the results with rather than your GP.

    Do use the appointment to discuss any questions or concerns you have. In the meantime, aim to keep busy to try to keep your mind off any worries.

    Wishing you all the best,

  • Hello, please can I ask what the outcome was of your situation? I am having similar symptoms as you and terrified I have the CC :( 

  • Hi sorry only just seen this. I had silver nitrate on my cervix to help then she sent me away, had an unexpected appointment again 2/3 weeks ago, had more silver nitrate and a lump removed from my vulva then sent home with antibiotics as have strep b down there. Been bleeding since still and no letter etc from the hospital. So still not alot closer to understanding what it is. Hope everything is OK with you? Did you see someone?
