Hi! I’ve never been in a chat room before but I’m a bit scared about what’s happening and I can’t really talk to my boyfriend/family about it at the moment. Long story short I was on my period for too long (probably TMI, sorry) so I went to the doctor. She said it was probably stress-related but she booked me in for some scans at the hospital anyway. I had the scans done and I was told that although they couldn’t find the cause of the bleeding they had an ‘incidental finding’ of a cyst on my right ovary and that it won’t go away on its own. Although I’ve had lots of scans and blood tests I’m not being told much about what’s going on. I keep being told conflicting things, e.g yesterday I was told I was going in for more tests, but it was actually just a chat. I’ve also been told conflicting things about whether it could be cancer and what the next steps are. I’m 24 years old and I’m really scared, I’m trying to be brave but it’s difficult not knowing what’s going on. Apparently I am meeting with a consultant tomorrow but again I’m not sure as I keep being told different things. I was just wondering if anyone has been through anything similar and has any advice/information about what the next steps are? Thank you.
