Waiting for biopsy results - Uterine Cancer

I have just started the agonising wait for results. Had a hysteroscopy on Saturday and was told it should be 2 weeks. I am quite a strong person but this is going to be hard. Of course I know that it could be fine but I went to my GP in January and it is now April. Even if the results are clear I still have to have all the polyps removed under a 'general'.

  • Hi and welcome.

    ive been through this process and the waiting for results is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I’m a teacher of over 40 years, a stressful job but nothing matches this wait.

    peopke on this site are great and very supportive. I found my best support joining in an off topic chat then sent personal messages to some of te participants, they have all been wonderful. My strength.

    i waited three weeks for my results and I know that my mind sank the depths one minute and was hopeful the next.

    my results were not brilliant but not the worst I’d imagined. The biopsy showed low grade cancer cells in the womb lining but there are so many other reasons for issues. I have an MRI next week with s follow up appointment and a hysterectomy. I found that the specialist nurse and my GP have been very supportive and that there is also a lot out there to support us whatever the outcome.  People on this site are top of that list of support.

     

    keep us informed of what happens. I have sent a friend request to you. Personal message me if you want to and I will respond. Ask questions and I’ll try to answer from my experience. But most of all just say what you think or feel if that helps.

  • Thanks, great to have some one to chat to. This has really lifted my mood.  Getting ready for work now but will certainly be in touch!

  • Ok. Just send a message when you’re able.

    have a good day at work.

  • I was expecting to have the results yet but spoke to Dr on another matter and they were in. It is good news. Naturally I am relieved but also feel slightly guilty that not everyone is so lucky. 

    I am waiting for a letter now about having operation for removal of polyps.

    Best wishes 

  • I’m so glad that it’s good news. Good luck with the polyp operation.

  • Hi

    How lovely to hear that your biopsies were clear. I had my biopsies taken on Monday via hysteroscopy under general anesthetic and was told that the results would be 4 weeks. Hearing that you got your results within 2 weeks has given me hope that I will not be waiting as long  as I anticipated.

  • Hi I've been waiting for results this past 5 weeks they are due this friday. I feel i'mok. The bleed I had for 6 days stopped. i have been really good about it at times as I go to Homeopath and have found that to be supportive as well as meditation and healing. Now I just want the results........... apart from the bleeding and shows prior to the bleed I had no other symptoms.  I'm hoping its the HRT caused the bleed did anyone else find that HRT was the cause of theior symptoms

     

    Kind Regards D
