Im hoping someone will have been through similar circumstances as myself.
ive had a hysterectomy leaving ovaries and prolapse surgery in 2015/2016
ive been having pain in my right side that has worsened over 2 years but have been having bloods etc looking for an autoimmune disease as had lots of different symptoms. Cold/blue hands and feet/ reflux problems/ bp has risen/ weight gain/ extreme fatigue. Bloods have shown firstly folate anemia which has resolved after 4 months of 5mg folic acid but also CRP 72 and esr 33.
my latest gp visit was to explain my pain has worsened and gp offered camera for bowel but I said I didn’t think it was my bowel even though had some vaginal spotting and bleeding on bowel movements. I thought maybe the prolapse was causing issues.
gp then said let’s send for ultrasound of upper abdomen so I agreed. On the 29/12 I had scan and was told (upper turned to lower whilst being scanned) that it was definitely a gynaecologist issue and would need referring for CT as looks like a cyst on ovary. On the 2/1 the gp called to say that I have a 14cm mass on ovary that they can’t say is or isn’t cancer so will be urgently referred but again mentioned CT. I then received a call on 3/1 to tell me I have a gynaecologist appointment on Tuesday 7/1 which obviously I was expecting but for some reason I thought I would get a ct first?
I’m now thinking the ultrasound showed enough for gynae to see me ASAP?
just wondered if anyone could help.
