Hey

i was sent for an ultrasound and also had a vaginal ultrasound. The lady said she couldn’t see anything untoward at the time but I’ve now had a phone call to say im being given this appointment for “suspected cancer”

im absolutely terrified.

im 51, started going thorough menopause in 2016. I originally contacted the doctor as this year in October I had a random period .ive  a few periods during my going through menopause.  I’ve had no pains anywhere or not felt unwell but I’m positive now I’ve got cancer. 

I’m driving myself crazy with worry.

any calming words appreciated 

Thank you for reading xx

    Hi. 

    Im in the same situation after a drs appointment last friday, for what i thought was some sort of infection. I had a smear in January which came back clear. But she took swabs and urine sample and requested i saw someone within 2 weeks as she saw what she thought was a cyst on my cervix. I had a call for an ultrasound within 2 hours of leaving the surgery and my appointment is today, i then have an examination appointment on friday and the lady on the phone mentioned cervical cancer. 

    Im absolutely terrified

    I had cervical cysts, dr said it was fine as cervical cysts are not cancerous. That's odd that you've been fast tracked. Are you having any other symptoms?
