Potential womb cancer

I had a postmenopausal bleed and went to my GP.  She examined me and referred me under the 2 week suspected cancer referral (Scotland)  I have an ultrasound in a couple of days and I am not coping with the wait.  I seem to have every symptom that indicates a positive result.  It doesn't help that I live on my own and can't stop Googling...

  • 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?

  • It is very worrying and I catastrophise too.  I'm not sleeping much and that certainly doesn't help.  Hoping to find out tomorrow when I'll get results from the scan.  Hope you get an appointment soon.
