so just had a scan and was told have endometrial thickness of 9mm, I have had some lower pain and brown dishcharge that smelt.. Had a biopsy done today now it’s the waiting game. I am really worried..
Hi I have just been for a biopsy today the lining thickness was 13.5 I'm worried sick I don't know what to do to cope till the results come back next week...have you had your results back? Take care T x
Thickened endometrium can be the result of other things beside cancer so keep an open mind if you can. My endometrium was 16mm when I had my scan in April. Now mine was a results of endometrial cancer but if caught early it is very treatable. I had a full hysterectomy, lymph nodes removed and three sessions of internal radiotherapy, finishing in early October. I’m now on four monthly check ups and living life to the full, having just returned from a fanatic, two week cruise to the Canary Islands,
Waiiting for results for me was the most difficult and stressful, once I knew and a plan was explained to me things settled. I tried to keep busy and distract myself but eventually I saw my gp who prescribed a low dose of diazepam I took only one a day of the six I could take but it did the trick. Once I had my results I did not need them. When all else failed the people on here were and still are very supportive.
Im sending a virtual squeeze from my hand to yours and hoping your results are good.
Its so refreshing to see im not the only one worrying about this issue.
I had a subtotal hysterectomy 6 years ago and had a bleed and excruciating bad pain in March, just before lock down. I was sent for two internal prob scans and revealed an endometrial thicking of 13mm. I've been on HRT oestrogen only for 6 years and due to lock down and not being able to be seen by anyone I was advised to take progesterone as well as the oestrogen until im seen. After 6 weeks the pain and bloating became unbearable and took myself off the progesterone.
We're now nearly in August, hot sweats are out of control, anxiety has resulted in me being off work for 3 weeks and stomach an back pains are still looming.
I'm terrified of whats happening inside my body.
Is there anyone out there that has had this issue after a hysterectomy?
Surgeon told me he thought the womb was find but quote" the nabothian cysts are causing moderate concern, they did not behave as cancer when cut out and did not bleed as cancer would but I an concerned enough to send you for a CT scan which I will time with the result"
I rang today with fingers crossed but no result is back.
I was told I would get a phone call with result.
Cannot concentrate mind wonders all over the place.
I try to read things into what he said but he did not know.
But advice please
I feel really bloated and sore inside from under bust down and uncomfortable my mind saying it's because it has spread .But I know they fill you with air for the procedure so worried about the pain and soreness.
Wow I'm not alone.. and not able to sleep. I had a hysteroscopy and curettage today. No conversation with the surgeon so no idea really what he thought.
I was referred following a scan and initial hysteroscopy which found 9mm thickening covered in an uneven/ragged surface. Am now waiting for the results. I'm 52 and very perimenoausal. I started taking progesterone for a couple of weeks to stop the bleeding as it was horrendous. But the progesterone seemed to cause insomnia anxiety etc so am glad I'm off it now!
I've been signed of work as my panic and anxiety has been awful so I possibly need to have another talk to the GP. Its the not knowing heat I'm dealing either which is terrifying! Its good to know we are not alone x
Dear ladies, I have had spotting for 5 days over 2 months (similar times to a period) so my gp referred me, I had a scan internal and external and all they could see was 5mm thickening.
I then had a small piece taken and have found out i need a hysteroscopy so they can see whats going on as the results showed psammoma in the serus but everything else was negative.
Can you tell me what happens when you have a hysteroscopy. I am not speaking to the consultant until 16 November and that is a telephone consultation. My GP has just given me the update.
I am 39 years old and have had abnormal periods for about a year. For 6 months they have been worse (lasting 10-14 days and the last few days I have a massive gush of blood each day). Any way went to the gynaecologist 2 weeks ago and he was rather rude. Didn't listen to a word I had said and seemed to want it over with (NHS patient referred to private hospital). He did a TVS straight away and stated that he wasn't happy and used the word sinister (that worried me). He took a biopsy (most painful thing I have had) and that was it. He showed me the scan pictures and stated that my lining was abnormally large. After this was said there was No advice on what to do after, nothing. The appointment made me feel awful and he mannerism suggested that there was more to what he wasn't saying.
Just had to wait 2-3 weeks for results.
the letter I received from him last week was full of false information. He claimed that I was 'wanting' a hysterectomy (I told him I am petrified of the thought and have cancelled 2 due to PTSD), he claimed that I wasn't on any medication (false, I am on antidepressants, iron medication, pain killers for hips and back), he claimed he had reassured me (false, I was left on my own with no information or care sheet as to what to expect after a biopsy)
The letter stated that my lining is 16mm and my left ovary had an ovulation cyst (every woman has these during certain times of their cycles).
I was petrified for 10 days but since his letter, I do not feel there is something wrong. But I worry as 16mm is on the larger side.
