Hi everyone,
I am so worried about my mum. She has been experiencing constant bloating of her tummy since May. We recently had an ultrasound and everything looked fine apart from a thickening of her endometrial lining, it was 9mm and as she is post menopause it should have been 5mm or under.
She was referred urgently to a gynaecologist, who did another transvaginal ultrasound and an examination. He found a polyp as well as the thickening. He has scheduled her for a hysteroscopy to remove the polyp and test the cells. We are so worried it is cancer, I am even more worried given the bloating as I keep worrying it has spread to the bowel and that’s why she is bloated :,( She has had no bleeding, and her only symptom prompting the initial tests was the bloating. I lost my dad to cancer nearly 4 years ago and I am so scared it’s happening again.
