Dear all

im posting because yesterday I was told I had a cyst on my right ovary. I initially went to the gp on Monday because I had three weeks of feeling like I needed to wee more often than usual.

the scan was really painful as I needed a full bladder. The sonographer then did an internal ultrasound, and said after a while "you have a cyst on your right ovary" but nothing else. 
I have awful health anxiety and emailed my gp practice who said they would chase up the results early next week. I got a phone call in the evening from one of the doctors saying that the report was suggesting it was a Dermoid cyst, and they have arranged a ca125 test for today.

I was reassured that it's unlikely to be cancerous, however my thoughts tell me otherwise. I'm absolutely amazed at the speed of how things are going. I think it's maybe been speeded up as my gp surgery are aware of how anxious I get (I get relapses of health anxiety a few times a year) 

I suppose I'm asking for some advice on how to cope when waiting for results? I've even started worrying about how my children will be if I do have cancer.

any thanks in advance and best wishes to you all
