Hi Tessmum,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. It sounds like you don't have long to wait for your appointment - I hope it goes OK.

It's never easy dealing with uncertainty and waiting for information. Try to take things a day at a time while you wait for results, and keep focused on other things as much as possible - I know this can be easier said than done. Do also try to avoid Googling as it only tends to lead to more worries.

I hope you hear more soon, and in the meantime hopefully you'll get more replies to your post.

Wishing you all the best,

Ben

Thanks Ben - ultrasound tomorrow trying not to panic!

Hi, I seen my gp this morning for the same reason! We all google despite knowing not to but we cannot help that. I’m also worried sick about potential diagnosis.

we will get through this whether we have it or not? X

Hi Trina hope you don't have to wait too long for tests.  It's horrible waiting when it's all you can think of.

Hi tess, yeh fingers crossed. And good luck for tomorrow hope all goes well for you x

Thank you x

Hi Tessmum

My doctor has also seen me this evening and referred me for a 2 week wait appointment for post menopause symptoms too.  The symptoms are indicating thickening of the uterus which may indicate cancer.  I just dont know and also very worried although GP has told me that around 1 in 500 have cancer - that it's possibly something else.  I always catastrophise so Googling all the time.  What else could it be though and what is the prognosis?

Hi Sheian it is very stressful.  Not sleeping much doesn't help either.  I got a letter from the hospital telling me they will review the scan results (have an ultrasound tomorrow) and they'll be in touch in due course.  Hoping to find out roughly when that will be.  Hope you get an appointment soon.

Thank you Tessmum.  Wishing you well for your scan results and hope it's good news.  How long did you wait for a scan?  I am worried about having a hysteroscopy.  I dont hope we'll either pain, so would only contemplate under GA
