Been sent for an ultrasound and cannot stop worrying

hi I've never written on this forum before but I just needed some advice/encouragement. 

I had a D&C in January and since then I haven't had a period. I've been to the gp so many times I've had terrible pain in my belly which has been shown up as cysts on my ovaries which is awful but now I spoke to the gynae team and they have sent me for an ultraspund urgently. Im so so scared that it could be something worst. I've had blood tests done which haven't shown anything sinister which makes me think could i be alright? But just the thought that it could be something is debilitating I cant eat I cant sleep i cant function im so tired I just cant bring myself to actually talk about it with family. 

If anyone has any words of encouragement please it would be greatly appreciated xx

  • Welcome to the forum Joy-p although I'm sorryto read what's troubling you.

    It can seem rather scary when you're being urgently referred but I hope it helps to know that more than 9 in every 10 people referred this way are not diagnosed with cancer. You can find out more about this referral method just here.

    As you say, it's a good that your bloods have come back normal so fingers crossed the ultrasound will bring similar results too.

    I'm sure some of our members who have been in a similar situation will get back to you soon as well.

    All the best,
