Mass on gallbladder urgent referral

I had an ultrasound on Monday night 5pm, Tuesday morning my gp rang and asked me to come in that day, she told me I had a soft tissue mass on my gallbladder and that I would have an urgent referral to see a gastroenterologist, I am 34 and I have an appointment in 1 weeks time. I have been in a lot of pain since November which is getting worse and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice or has anything similar and what happened to them? Did it turn out to be cancer? 
thanks in advance for your help

  • Hi Poppy888,

    I'm sorry to read about the pain you've been in. The only thing to really do at this stage is to wait for the appointment and for any potential next steps to take. Try to take things one day at a time and prior to your appointment it may help to keep busy and distracted.

    If anyone here has any similar experience to share then hopefully they'll be along soon.

    Wishing you all the best and I hope it's not too much longer for you to wait to find out more,
