I originally saw my GP about my symptoms in December 2017... But he was so dismissive that I felt a bit stupid and left it. I eventually saw a different GP in march, and it has taken this long for me to get an urgent ultrasound (large cyst on ovary found), and a blood test (elevated CA125). I've now been referred for urgent gynae appointment, but nearest appointment is booked for two weeks from now.
GP seems fairly sure it's ovarian cancer, so I am worrying now about all these delays... Is there any way to speed it up? I can't afford to go totally private, but we might be able to pay for initial consultation or other bits and pieces? Are there any guidelines about how quickly they should be dealing with me?
Thanks
