In April I attended A&E because I had really bad period bleeding. I was booked for an ultrasound and they found a 25cm cyst on my ovary. I was obviously alarmed by this as the ultrasound showed a massive dark mass in my uterus. I was told I was going for an urgent MRI which I ended up having to chase myself. Afterwards my case was suppose to be sent to the MDT the following week but it wasn’t. The problem is i started to get a-lot of pain and after several phone calls and having to chase things myself it turns out my case wasn’t discussed at that MDT and won’t be until the next one on June 17th.
I met with my consultant who told me that they will most likely have to remove my ovary but no surgical plan will be confirmed until after this date. I was sent for my CA125 blood test and I am awaiting results although I have been told they do not think I have cancer. This whole situation has been stressful and I have no idea what to expect. I’m told I’m an urgent case but I have no idea how long to expect to wait for surgery afterwards or even if it will a high priority. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
