Hi all, I am new to this, I went to see the gynae clinic yesterday following a cancer referral from a&e, he done an internal ultrasound and ruled out ovarian cancer, however when he went to do the speculum test, he had to remove it as it was too painful. He said he is sending me for an mri to check what's going on as I'm clearly inflamed inside to cause the pain, I have light bleeding, but the main issue is nausea, weeing frequently and pelvic pressure/pain, the lower part of my stomach is blown out and feels very tight. I feel tired a lot and just unwell, wanted to see if anyone has had similar symptoms or if it could be something less serious and also if the doctor does an mri if they have suspicions or if it's routine. I have had blood test done just awaiting results and appointment for mri, hopefully it doesn't take too long to come through as I am so worried that something is wrong! I have had painful sex on and off over the last year but thought nothing of it and I have also unintentionally lost about a stone in the last 9 months.
thankyou x
