Hello,
My doctor is away and I received the results of my pelvic ultrasound online. Cancer is not mentioned. I am 68 years old and was having stomach/pelvic pain. The doctor is trying to determine what is causing it. The results show I have mild endometrial thickening and I'm to have another ultrasound in 6 months to a year. I know nothing about this and googling it was scaring me. Is it cancer? Something to really worry about?
Thanks for listening.
Hi SamanthaJoy and a very warm welcome to the Community but sorry to hear about the concerns you are having.
Navigating the diagnosis journey can be such a stressful and challenging time but getting support from people who have walked the ‘exact same' journey can help a lot.
This New to Community area is like our reception desk where we look to try and direct you to the best part of the Community for you to get support. The Community is actually divided into dedicated Support Groups (Discussion Rooms) so can I recommend that you join and put up a post in our dedicated Endometrial support group.
This is a safe place to talk to others with a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support.

…… then once the group page opens you can introduce yourself by putting up your very own post by clicking [+ Create new post]or [ + ] in the top right of the group page.

You may find it helpful to call the Macmillan Support Line open 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00. This service provides cancer information, practical information, emotional support or just a listening ear.
