I think its safe to say I have health anxiety and feel I need to speak it out
Last week I had a ultrasound and got a call 2 days later to say their concerned about the thickness of my womb and been referred for a biopsy urgently ... so a but if back story
I have been having issues with my stomach for about a year now
Started off when I went to doctors because I was having very water discharge or I was peeing myself slightly ( i have had issues with bladder since they cut my bladder with my 4th section 6 years ago) referred to urology and they done a pelvic ultrasound said my womb was thin which was to be expected because I am going through menopause. I am 43 and was told after doing bloods at 39 I was going through peri menopause. Last period was February 2025. But everything on scan looked good , I emptied my bladder had to be rescanned and I was still showing over 150mls of urine , so then into urology there scan showed I was holding over 400mls after emptying so was to be self catherised, however after several trips to urology and studies done this changes all the time ... I have constant dull ache im my lower abdomen some times having shooting pain in left lower side , then I started to get very bloated, especially upper abdomen and it feels so uncomfortable, I actually feel like I am heavily pregnant and look it !! Even turning in my bed its just like I did when I was heavily pregnant, I now have pains in the top right hand side of abdomen just under my ribs
I wake up feeling full and have put on so much weight but havent changed anything in my diet...other symptoms are constant tiredness like I wake up tired, if I have a day out with the kids im bedded and for days it just floors me ! My bowels have changed there now very loose and I go 3/ 4 times a day and I am someone who has suffed constipation my whole life, sex is so uncomfortable and sometimes I have some pink watery disharge after, in February I had a bleed bang on a year after no.period so I went to the doc and they booked me for a biopsy, but come the day I went in and it couldn't be done by GP due to my blood disorder so said she would refer me back to gynecologist then she showed me a letter from 3 years ago where I was referred to them due to very heavy, very painful long lasting periods and they said if that continued they wanted to do a biopsy then but it was never followed through!
And here i am now worried about every slight niggle have had a cough and feel so run down for about 6 weeks probably just from the stress of it all
Sorry for the massive story I think I just needed to get it out, and if your still here I think my question is ... should I be worried that my womb is now thick when 5 month ago it was thin
