Morning 

I know I’m overacting but even though I keep telling myself this I’m still worried.

For the past few months I’ve not been feeling 100%, no specific symptoms just feeling tired and yuk. Been going back and forth to doctors as fed up, can’t lose weight etc etc. I’m 49 so resigned to the fact that it’s my age. Doctor has been brilliant, initial diagnosis stress, which after she said I totally agree. She also tested bloods, all ok except thyroid which is a little high but it’s just a case of retesting in 3 months and liver a little high too, but again will retest as not alarmingly high. Blood pressure has been high and have had 24 hour monitor 2 weeks ago and waiting to see results on next visit. 

However, due to irregular periods she also sent me for a scan which I had last Wednesday where they told me I had a cyst on my ovary. Didn’t think too much of it, but did what you shouldn’t do and googled when I got in, but luckily that just made me feel better after reading how common they are.  But on Thursday I had a phonecall from my surgery saying from my scan the day before they want me to see female doctor, which I’m doing tomorrow. So from going from it’s only a simple/common cyst that I had in my head would need a retest as they usually disappear on their own I’m now worried because they want to see me so quickly. I know, probably nothing, but doesn’t matter how much I tell myself I can’t settle! 

When I was having scan I was asked if I’d had the c2 or something blood test, which I don’t think I have. Googled that also and now know it was CA125 blood test she was referring to! So running that through my head and asking myself why did she ask me that. 

After reading more about it (again know I shouldn't) I do have quite a few of the symptom, which are mild and I’ve not mentioned to my doctor as I’d put them down to age. Lower back pain, feels like sciatica.... I’m overweight, I know I need to lose weight but finding it difficult, one of main reasons I went to doctor in first place as I’m feeling frustrated with this. Irregular periods, I’d put down to approaching menopause. Sometimes needing toilet urgently but no really need when I get there etc. Again I though age. I’m probably still right with these thoughts. 

I know there are no answers out there and I just have to wait for my appointment tomorrow but just needed to share. Hubby doesn’t seem  interested so not had anyone to really talk with about how I’m feeling.

sorry for the long post.
