Ultrsound

Hi 

I have just got home from an ultrasound appointment due to pain and abnormal bleeding. The radiographer couldn't read as she said I was to gassy. She asked if it was OK to do an internal one so she could see better 

 

To cut a long story short she said she could see fibroids and some slight abnormalities and would require a second opinion. She also said something about restricted blood flow, by that time my head wasn't listening. 

 

Any advice as to if I should be concerned. I have had abnormal bleeding, bloating, painful sex, loss of appetite, frequent urination. Stressed is an understatement  

 

Thank you in advance

    I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms that you've been dealing with recently. It's understandable that you're feeling worried about what this may all mean for you. 
    I think that most of our members here will agree that this time of waiting for tests and results can be particularly difficult; the unknown can be very scary. 

    I wonder if you might find it helpful to talk things through with one of our nurses whilst you're waiting on the next steps. I'm sure that they will be able to offer some advice and support. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I hope you have some news soon. Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes, 
    Jenn
