Cell changes and oestrogen dominance ?

Hello,

 

Its taken me since june to get some answers and even though i have am still not sure what to do.

For private reasons i struggle with all sorts of examinations and it as been a massive thing for me even going to try get sorted. I have since had biospies done back in september whilst asleep to which they found my womb lining is too thick and i have cell changes. I also have large cysts on my ovaries and i am very overweight :( . I went for my appointment and was told i need another ultra sound and transvaginal and after this he wants to do more biospies but awake this time. I know so many are going through so much and i feel so bad posting here admitting this out loud but i cant go. I will push myself to do another scan but after the hell of past tramua i physcially cant go through with a biospy done whilst awake. I was given medication to which i had a bad reaction too but i just dont want to go back. 

 

As anyone gone through similar? how many times do you have to have biospies done ? Is it true my cysts are connected to my womb lining? My specialist is wanting me to have a coil fitted which i really dont want and i know this is a cop out but after the last few years with so many issues with my periods and weight and now cysts he says he has to remove (above 10 plus centimeters neeeds removing?) i asked if i can have a hysterecomy because am 47 and dont wish for more children and because of the past tramuas all this being where it is i dont think i can go through it. I am in bits everytime i go on to hospital and all he said is i cysts and womb thicking isnt related, lose weight (which i agree) and have the coil. I have cancelled my next appointment as i cant explain how much stress i feel knowing i wont have a voice again and will have to go along with things i am just so unhappy with.

 

I dont even know what am asking but as anyone gone through similar and did it progress to cancer within months? x

    I'm sorry to hear about your ongoing health problems. It sounds as if it's all been very difficult and overwhelming for you. 

    I don't know what your relationship is like with your GP but I'm wondering if they could contact the Consultant on your behalf to explain your previous traumas and how it impacts you being examined. If not your GP then possibly you have a friend or someone else who could act as an advocate for you. Alternatively you could contact your local PALS office for support. 

    If you feel unable to physically voice your situation to the Consultant then you might consider writing to him and outlining all the points that you want to make. 

    I think whatever decision you make it's important to speak to your health care providers and let them know how you are feeling. Only then will they be able to try to support you with this. 

    You've been very brave in sharing your story here and I'm sure that you will find the strength to get through this too. 

    I hope you find a resolution soon. 

    Best wishes, 
    Jenn
