Please go back to the gp and insist on a hysteroscopy; I’d had on/off spotting for a few months, then I started bleeding. Saw the nurse on Saturday for the hysteroscopy and she said there was clear cancer. Waiting for MRI now to see if it’s spread. Don’t mind admitting that I’m scared. I’m 60. Not ready to die yet and my daughters aren’t old enough to,go,through this.

Ali, know it’s a scary place, I’ve been where you are, and everything scared me, after my mri, they did hysterectomy then a treatment plan, there is so much they can do, I virtually booked my funeral I was so scared, but 3 1/2 years later, touch wood I’m still ok..

easy to say now but ur in good hands xx good luck to you 

Thank you so much for this … I’ve redone my will, had some smal jobs around the house done or booked to have them done, cancelled my holiday plans and told all those that need to know. My daughters aren’t close and have no relationship with their dad so it’s just the three of us. They just need to be a bit more established in their own lives. Finding it all a bit much to take in tbh. Thanks again for your positivity 

Sending hugs to you AliG. As Mario says there are good treatment options. It’s good to be prepared though and organised. Hope you get reassurance and a treatment plan soon. I’m a bit less far down the line to you as I’ve not got my hysteroscopy til this Thursday. Like WiseOwl I am dreading it and wished I could have a general anaesthetic but they’ve said they can do local. I’m hoping that’s similar to an epidural. Do hope you get an appointment very soon WiseOwl. 
Thinking of everyone going through this and thank you again to you Mario and others who are offering reassurance having gone through it.

I didn’t have any anaesthetic … and it hurt, so if it’s offered do take it. I’m one of those people for whom everyth

ing ends to the worst outcome and it’s taking some doing to try and reassure myself and my 22 yo who lives at home with me. 

good luck for Thursday… t

take some sanitary pads with you, take some paracetamol before you go and ask questions xxx

I wrote letters to each of my kids and my grandson so no questions were left unanswered and no regrets, signed up for over 50 insurance, I was so so scared, so I know exactly how u all feel..no1 else will get it unless they been through it..I now suffer anxiety but my end result is still the same I’m here. I think if I could tell myself anything it would be being scared won’t change a thing, I should  of steered clear of google (hence my anxiety problem)and I have no choice but to go with what comes because only the hospital can do for me at this stage..once hysterscopy is done ur know what’s what..everyone needs a good friend to talk to as I tried to steer my diagnosis away from my family, but u all need to speak your fears to someone xx

I had general anaesthetic im really a low pain tolerance kind of person lol, I googled it and thought no way, but just had a friend have it done and she said was uncomfortable but ok..

Oh writing letters is a good idea! I’ll do that! Trying to keep it away from my daughters until I have a clear diagnosis: your positive outcome is reassuring. I took out life insurance when I got divorced so all that is covered but will need to check the paperwork and leave copies of that too I guess. We all take rmz for granted … and it’s not a given is it? 
thank you for kind responses x

Any help can offer xx anytime u neec to talk or ask anything I’m here x let me know how u get on x

You won’t die. I was diagnosed with womb cancer in April and managed to stay positive throughout. I have had robotic surgery but feeling ok. I will have radiation for 4 sessions starting next week. I’ve been told by a private doctor and NHS doctor that if you are going to get cancer, womb cancer is the better type to get and is very treatable. Good luck with everything. Wishing you well. 

Thank you MissMayMay!

Hope you continue to recover well and that the radiation session go ok! x
