Hiya Everyone,
Just looking for any help or advice here. I went to my GP after feeling quite unwell for a long time with terrible back pain, bloated stomach (went up a size in clothes!) although didn't seem to be eating as much as I used to but gaining weight, I had constipation, and abnormal bleeding after intercourse twice. I am in my fifties and previously not had any periods for months. I began to worry my symptoms seemed to be similar to that of ovarian cancer and I I phoned my GP who did a pelvic exam a few weeks ago. My GP then referred me for a US scan and blood tests. My blood tests CA125 came back quite high and the scan showed a hemorrhagic cyst. I was fast tracked to Gynae appt and was told that my ovaries all look fine and it was probably a period at the time of the scan and it was probably an unfertilised egg not a cyst?? The Gynae then did a colposcopy and took a biopsy. They said that they would repeat my blood tests in 6 weeks time but I am so worried that they are just dismissing me without offering me another scan and leaving me to wait to check my bloods etc
I am becoming really anxious and wonder if I should go back to GP or ask for a second opinion as my GP even said at the time of the phone call that it was 'suspected cancer' referral due to cyst and the blood tests being as they were? I am totally lost as to what to do next and wonder if anyone has been in the same posotion and how they dealt with it. Sorry for the long winded post but I am just worrying myself and becoming anxious as what I should do next as they also seem to think at the gynae that it could be my diverticulitis playing up?
So worried and any help from you lovely ladies on here would be so much appreciated xx
