Hi. I was on a 2 week gynae cancer pathway laat year. I have several lesions on my womb & a benign tumour on my right ovary, my CA 125 test was normal ( no ovarian cancer). A week ago symptoms returned pain unbearable & losing brown blood. Yesterday my GP put me back on the 2 week cancer gynae pathway again.

Recently I've been constipated & peeing loads. Its just best to get it checked. If you have a niggly gut feeling, go with your instincts. Its proberly nothing but until you're checked you wont feel reassured.

I wish you well x

Thanks Minnie, I have just rang the doctors and typically all the appointments for today have gone so they have booked me in for this coming Monday but at least I have made the appointment. Hope you are ok too and you are right, best to go with gut. 

I did mine over the phone. I'm lucky with my GP. But if u ring back & explain ur symptoms & say u want an urgent call appointment if not face to face.  Maybe they can fit u in before Monday. Like I said I'm lucky with my GP, I email her as well via the surgery. Each each surgery as an email address, so do that.

Whatever you decide to do try to stay calm, easier said I know. 

And keep in touch & let me know how you get on xx

Thanks Minnie, I will try. I did explain the symptoms over the phone to the receptionist and that it says online that any bleeding after menopause needs to be treated urgently and I just got the standard “like I said we have no appointments for today, best I can do is Monday”. I will see if they have any telephone appointments. 

Tried, no telephone appointments available for today, apparently I can try and call them at 8:00am tomorrow to try and get one which is impossible as I will be on the park and ride bus heading to work. 

Not good enough! Ring & ask for the practice manager as u wish to make a complaint & also ask for their email address & mention you'll cc in ur local MP.

That normally works! I've done all of this for other people & get so annoyed with the robotic receptionist! So plz do that x

I don’t want to get on the wrong side of the receptionists incase I need their help in future however I have decided to go into work earlier tomorrow so I can go into a side room and make the call at 8am tomorrow to try and get a phone appointment as I don’t want to be worrying about it over the weekend. Then at least I can get to speak to the doctor tomorrow (hopefully). Will keep you updated. Thank you for your help. X 

Dont worry about receptionists, its your right to speak to the practice manager.

But you do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Keep me updated & take care xx

Thanks Minnie, will do xx

Hi Sky309 I completely relate I literally can’t stop stressing either. It’s been 7 weeks of worry so far and now awaiting scan results from urologist. If nothing found there then back to gynaecologist for further tests. Only hope you can get your tests interpreted in laymen’s terms by your GP on Monday. I know what a worrying time this is but hopefully you will get some answers soon sending positive vibes xx

Thanks Faithhope, hope you get your scan results soon, it’s the waiting that’s the worst, I’m so impatient. If they say no further action Monday then I’m still going to be worried as I’m still peeing constantly and have backache and stomach ache so somthing is causing it. I have come on here to let off steam as can’t really speak to the hubby about it. His mum died last year from pancreatic cancer, within 3 weeks of her diagnosis, he’s not properly grieved and doesn’t talk about it. He is worried about these tests more than me so I keep a positive vibe around him but secretly sit here googling. I just want to get to the bottom of the symptoms and some answers. 

Hi Sky I only hope that you get some positive news soon. I understand your concerns if you still have ongoing symptoms but our minds can tend to make us think the worst. I know mine does since going through menopause my anxiety has ramped up especially health anxiety! Sorry to hear that you’re not able to share your concerns with your hubby right now but can understand why particularly as he’s only just coming to terms with the loss of his mum thinking of you x

• Hi FaithHope, doctor said that although ultra sound came back abnormal they were not concerned as it just picked up small fibroids. They have decided to “wait and see” and won’t need any further action now unless I get another bleed, how’s everything with you? X
