can't stop thinking

hi lovlies,

at this moment i badly need some positive vibes. for last 2/3 months, i was getting very mild pain in my left ovary during ovulation and i felt bloated. however, for last couple of weeks my bloating doesnt go away, with that i was having everyday on and off mild pain, dizziness and heart burn. 

i contacted gp and i've already done CA125 test now waiting for result. scan is booked on 5th of August, which seems to me ages to go. by the way, i am 43 years young.

my all sysmptoms convince me that i will get a bad news. cant stop thinking about my 7 years old boy. any advice ladies?

  • Hi hun 

    I think the waiting is the hardest.. I've convinced myself the same.. bad news... But we have to stay positive... Be strong and carry on x

  • Hi there - sorry you're so worried I know it's a scary feeling. What I'd say tho' is that I don't think your GP can be unduly concerned if s/he were worried they would have ordered your tests immediately. A few weeks ago my GP put me on what's called the 2 week cancer pathway because she was concerned about my symptoms. All the tests were done in that time. You wouldn't be waiting until 5th August if there was cause for concern. 

    Hope this puts your mind at rest a bit. (Oh & my tests all came back clear!) Why not yours too? :):)

    Good luck. x

  • Hi Hun, glad to your results came back clear. I hope mine will be too. Just can’t stop worrying, I don’t know why. May it’s because my mum has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer.

    i called GP again if my blood test report has come back or not, they said it will come back on Tuesday morning. It’s so scary to wait, trying to divert my mind but really can’t.

    thanks a lot for sending me a positive msg, it means a lot.

    lots of love  

    ish

  • Hi again - sorry you can't get it off your mind. When my GP put me on the 2 week cancer pathway she told me that 9 out of 10 people referred for cancer tests come back clear. As I said earlier your GP can't think there is a cause for concern so really, sweetie, you need to think about that 9 out of 10 figure :)

    I'm sure a lot of this is because of your mums diagnosis which must be very worrying & I do hope her prognosis is positive. Keep as busy as you can doing everyday stuff & focus on that not on negative thoughts if you possibly can. Tuesday will come around no matter how/what you think so 'get mad' at that nasty little worm called fear - tell it to clear off & don't let it ruin your weekend. x

  • Awww, so kind of you that you took your time to clam my mind. Really appreciate that. 

    Lots of love sweetheart
