Hi all new here.... just looking on some advice and support really and to hear your stories.

I've just turned 31 and about a month and a half ago I noticed my tummy had started been all bloated and swollen and tender. First I thought maybe gas or bowel issues as I have IBS, but it continued over the month mark and I made a docs appointment just thinking maybe I’m allergic to something or I was worried, as I had the same kinda symptoms when I had a smear 3 years back with the results been CIN3. He said I can’t have a smear but he will run some bloods. Anyway I put it to the back of my mind and thought I’ll do it when I get chance. 3 weeks later I went for the bloods and literally the next day I had a call from the surgery saying they needed to see me ASAP. I booked an early appointment for the following morning (Thursday just gone) thinking she’ll tell me I have worms or something ha! As soon as I got in there she said my CA125 levels were raised from the usual 35 for an average patient to 60.... not knowing what this even meant she then asked if she could do an internal, confused, I agreed to. She said my cervix looks clear and healthy but that she could feel a little lump and asked if she could pop a finger up my bum to check what it was which I refused... told her I needed to poop and she agreed annoyingly that maybe it was just some poop. (Sorry tmi) 

I got dressed and she said she’s referring me to get a pelvic scan which could take 2 weeks, but a week after the appointment I’m due to be on holiday in Spain for a week. I asked her why all this and she said my bloods may be showing signs there’s a chance I have ovarian cancer.... but it may be something less sinister but they need to make sure.... obviously I almost fell off my chair. I’m only 31, I just thought I’d be constipated to now be told it could be the C word. 

I cant bare the wait and I’ve booked in for a private scan for the day before I go on holiday. The thing is it’s all I can think about. I have 2 young kids I’m totally on my own with no family and minimal friends. I don’t know if it’s in my head but I’m sure the pain in my tummy I was feeling is getting worse and I feel I’m losing my mind!! I’m 31 fgs.... how can it be something so bad? So basically I’m asking what next to expect after the scan, how long till I know and what will the next steps be and if anyone here had a result of 60 in their CA125 blood tests and what was the outcome. Or even more than that and their outcome from the scan... thanks everyone and sorry for the long post xx
