I had a random private blood test to check my hormone levels, it came back with raised CA125. The private Dr insisted I had further tests, transvaginal scan and pelvic ultra sound, and ct scan. All within. 24 hours of the blood test, this confirmed a 3cm mass on my right ovary they suspect to be cancer. I have now been referred into the NHS system and told it may be 3 weeks before I see a gynaecologist for a treatment plan or staging. Is this normal? I am a dual citizen of France and am debaiting going back there for treatment. Any advise?
Hi lisax1 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm not a member of this group, so don't know if a three week wait to see a gynaecologist is normal or not, but I noticed that you hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' your post back to the top of the discussion list where it'll be more easily spotted.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
