Hello everyone,
I was wondering if a 4 week wait was normal for ca125 results. I had full bloods taken today and some swabs due to a few things I've experienced recently
I've looked on the NHS app and the majority of my results are back and within range. A handful including the CA125 results won't be back until 19th March.
In the last 6months I've had two separate occasions where I have experienced excruciating pain under my right rib. I went to the doctors and they suspected gallstones. This was ruled out by a scan, though blood tests showed an infection.
I've put on a lot of weight so I do wonder I most of my otyer recent symptoms are related to this. But the weight is on my stomach and hips. I havent changed anything in my lifestyle.
I have a very localised pain on my left side about two fingers width above my csection scar (10 years old) and back pain
This month i came on my period two weeks after I had commenced, I feel very run down and tired, fuzzy headed and have a head ache most days at the moment. My legs, feet and hands are swollen.
My appetite seems okay, but I cant eat as much not because I feel full, I just have nausea and I'm so so thirsty.
This all could be a combination of factors that coincidently have come all at once. But I am slightly concerned
More so with I can 100% feel pain in that localised area and have bled out of sync
I phoned the doctors and she said she would do bloods and if that showed anything then fast track a scan. But the bloods are already going to take 4 weeks which means a non urgent scan will be even longer than this.
I also had swabs today and they found a polyp on my cervix which the nurse said wouldn't cause the pain I was describing. But could be the cause of my bleed.
I guess I just wanted to see if anyone else had waited this long for results. Could it be that my others were within range so they weren't deemed urgent?
Thank you in advance xx
