I've had very heavy bleeding for 6 mths now, Dr tried the pill, then another suspected an infection but neither treatments helped and my tummy pain and general health were so poor I ended up going to a and e. First test showed high lactate, I thought I'd just be sent home but thanks to a thorough on call emergency Dr everything seemed to be taken more seriously than I expected. They did a ct scan with a dye which showed a thick womb lining, some kind of masses and excessive free fluid. I was admitted which again, I was surprised and expected to be sent home. I was given lots of blood tests and fluid through the night and saw a very serious gyne Dr who said she didn't want to negative but this was serious. The next day I was given an internal scan and told that what they had seen was worse than they expected. One side of the womb was thicker than the other with some calcified mass and ++ free fluid. They expected the amount of fluid and wall to be less given the very heavy blood loss but it wasn't. I had a biopsy taken later that day and again they said what they found was a lot'more' than expected and she asked for it to be sent as an 'emergency' biopsy. I was too scared to ask if she thought it was cancer but her face said a million things. They arranged for me to be seen the next day. The receptionist said about a hysterectomy and discussing my results. (A hysterectomy hadn't been discussed with me!) Unfortunately my gyne was off sick and the appointment was cancelled. I was supposed to hear from them today but didn't so hoping I'll have some news tomorrow. Will they discuss cancer results over the phone?! Am I being dramatic and overthinking?! I feel like I've been told without being told and my head is all over the place. Part of me knows it is and another part of me thinks I'm being silly. I'm in denial and terrified all at once! I'm also struggling so much as I've been ill for so long and off work. Ironically my partner has too and she's waiting for a mri of a mass they have found in her head. We've both worked our whole lives and literally don't have any money to live on. Really really feeling g stuck and drowning ATM.
