Unexpected

I’m 29 with two young children 1&4. I am also a nurse. 

Two weeks ago I found out I was unexpectedly pregnant for the third time despite contraception. I booked a early private scan and yes pregnant.

But she found a large ovarian cyst 7cm x 6cm x 5cm, appears a simple cyst thin walled. Gp referral to Gyne under two week wait. Ca125 taken and raised at 140, understand expected elevation in early pregnancy but not to this level. Appointment next Tuesday.

if it wasn’t for the scan I wouldn’t be any the wiser Iv had no symptoms.

I am seeking support, the tables have turned and I am terrified. Case of having some knowledge but not enough ...

  • I don't have any knowledge but if it helps I went through something similar with a gum tumor .. I was pretty much convinced and so were the medical team working with me that my tumour was malignant turned out to be non malignant giant cell tumor- I hope this helps as I know it is a scary lonely time. One thing I found was when people kept telling me I'll be fine and not to worry I was like shhhhh you don't know that ! Let yourself go through the motions but try not to stress to much because of bubba xxxx
