Cervical Ultrasound

Hello

I felt the need to post here to share my experience and to hopefully shed some light on my situation and hope it also helps others. 

I have had heavy bleeding since the beginning of this year.  I got rushed into hospital in February with a suspected miscarriage.  I since then had an ultrasound in March which was apparently all clear.  I am peri menopausal so they put my bleeding down to hormone disruptions.

i consequently had the coil fitted in April and the pain got worse. 

since then I have been bleeding bright red fresh blood.  I went to my dr recently and asked for another ultrasound scan as I feared they missed something and they found a leision in my uterus 5cm by 5cm. The drs were shocked.

Since then I have had a biopsy which I am waiting the results.  I am so confused as to why my GP asked me to come in and she told me it looks Malignant.  I said how can you tell without the biopsy result? She said because of the way it looks. 

I have been booked for a hysteroscapy and an MRI - scared is an understatement and how could it have been missed in March? Or it’s grown since then.  I am praying it’s fast growing fibroids but totally lost at the moment as I don’t have any answers yet.  My biopsy should be due back next week 

any comments or opinions on this will be greatly received

  • Hi there ...

    So sorry , it sounds like you have a G P , who's talking before thinking ... even my surgeon when I had some calsification lumps taken out,  wouldn't comment till they had been taken for biopsy's... and my cancer one, after biopsy's were taken, wouldn't comment either till after they had been to the lab ..

    So yea she may be right, but l wouldn't take that as gospel untill you get the official results back ..  no wonder your scared ... but don't think much of that Dr either .. I'd ask for a different Dr next time ...

    Fingers crossed for a good result ... Chrissie x

  • Hello Chrissie

    thank you so much for your kind words it means a lot. 

    My close family think the same and are perplexed as to why they told me this before my biopsy results.  I have heard that ultrasounds are not 100% reliable so to be told it’s highly likely it’s malignant has been devastating.  

    Your right about changing doctors as I really don’t want to see her again as her delivery of the news wasn’t nice. She may as you say be right so I will now have to wait and see. 

    Im wondering if the coil has caused this if my scan in March was clear.  

    The biopsy result will be the definitive answer im sure. 

    Thank you you again for your reassurance it’s lovely to hear
