Hello all, I was hoping for a little advice if that's ok? Sorry in advance for the rambling post.....
I am 41 and have 4 lovely little ones . I had an ovarian cyst removed 3 weeks ago, along with a biopsy of 'endometrial build up on uterine wall' and had a mirena coil fitted (for periods so heavy I go very anaemic which have got a lot worse the last 18 months).
My consultant seems very good but doesn't really give a lot away! He only told me after the op that the cyst , which on ultrasound looked like an Endometrioma (due to having echos) wasn't that but has sent it off for biopsy . I also have never been diagnosed with endometriosis. He didn't mention about the build up or that he had biopsied anything else until I received the letter about the op. I also have a slightly raised CA125 but only 43.
He did say following the op that results are back in two weeks. I had this all done privately as my husband has healthcare. I am very anxious as I feel so in the dark about it all . I called his secretary at the 2 week mark to ask about the ovarian cyst biopsy but all she said asked was if I had a follow up (which I do one week today) so she said I need to wait for that , which will be 4 weeks from the op. She didn't take my name or anything , just said if we need to call you we will. I then received a detailed letter about the other biopsy, so sent a polite email 5 days ago just explaining that he had said two weeks and I was very anxious . I've heard nothing at all still.
I know it's only one more week . But keep going through scenarios - have the results not come back yet so that's why they haven't called or is there nothing wrong so just letting me wait or is there something wrong and he is sorting arrangements ! I'm driving myself mad !!!
Just wondering has anyone else waiting a long time for results privately? Not sure if it's different as there aren't MDT meetings ? Has anyone ever had endometrial wall build up - I can't seem to find info on it . so sorry for all the questions .
