2 week urgent referral today

So today I saw a Consultant about my ovarian cyst on a 2 week referral. No up to date notes from my gp's surgery had arrived. He said I should have a ct scan in a couple of weeks but would scan me again in 3/4 months. In my mind why do I need a ct scan then? He said that the cyst looks to be benign but without imaging I don't see how he would tell (I'm guessing he just had my gp's referral letter with some details about my previous scan). Also I was told I should've had blood tests before I arrived at my appt (I told him my last ca125 test was raised - 41 when I had it alongside my ultrasound scans a couple of weeks ago). I was sent for more bloods whilst at my appt today. Feel stupid & frustrated that I didn't ask more questions. My husband had a go at me because of this too - feeling miserable & not sure what to do next? Sorry for the ramble!

  • I know what you mean with Google. As far as I found out by sounds of it mind will be normal as it's so small but I guess they will want to try see my right Ovary so I'm guessing another ultrasound. 
    sorry to hear about your dad my birth mother passed away with the same type of cancer. 
    I just want this over with and in all honesty I'm not good with hospitals at all so that's not helping and it's the thought of going for more tests I don't think I can do it. 
    I hope all goes well for you tomorrow with your CT scan and that you get the results soon. 
    Its just nice for me to talk to somebody whose also going through the waiting game 

  • Thank you and it's truly the most awful disease and I'm sorry for the way it's impacted your family too.

    I have to prepare for the worst and hope for the best and be grateful I have a doctor that has not left any stone unturned even if he's a bit hard to talk to  

    keep me updated and I hope all goes well for you x

  • All the best and hope it's good news for x
