Hello all.
I have been having lots of varying symptoms for 5 months now.. Every day I have been unwell.
After many trips to emergency and drs appointments i have been referred to Non specific symptoms clinic, ti.test.for as.many cancers as possible. I have had ultrasound, bloods, colonoscopy, gastroscopy and full body CT.all within 10 days. However despite the now quick.turn round I collapsed at home on weds. Husband called ambulance who took me in. They initially suspected an internal bleed from the colonoscopy i.had the day before, but came back clear but junior dr mentioned endometreiosis. Today though i was back.to medical assessment as a follow.up bloods foe.low cortisol, while discussing the results the consultant sais "Did they talk to you about your abdo CT" I.said.yes endomerriosis, he looked down.and said well.ive looked at it and dont think it is that and ive just sent an urgent referral.to your GP to.book further investigations.i could sense what he was suggesting and was a bit shocked.so didnt ask anything else. Looking up my symptoms and what he might have seen on CT I am now convinced it ovarian cancer, and looking at prognosis im terrified.
I.should get all the other results ftom.the initial tests next week, just getting myself wound up.now..
Symtoms are: dull lower back and side pain , coxyxx pain, tenderness in abdomen, daily heartburm.and feeljing id lump.in throat, feel full quickly, bloating, constipation, frequent urination, drenching night sweats, swiollen lymph node in neck, tiny pin prock red spots all.over.
I think im so worried as ive been.back.and forth with 5 months with no diagnosis apart from anemia and low cortisol, I feel like time.had been wasted and it might have developed too far. I know im getting ahead of myself as I havent even got a diagnosis yet, dont even know what I.need from writing
this i.just can not share my thoughts even with my husband yet as we have been going through so.much this year already with various health thohgs with children, losing my father in law and then supporting a close friend thriugh a difficult time.
Sorry.for long ppst.
