I’m waiting for my results from an ultrasound on Friday afternoon (3 days ago) but feel sick and just keep wanting to cry.
i thought I had fibroids as my periods are really heavy with clots, needing to go to the toilet in the night, constipation and lower pelvic pressure.
I never even considered Cancer until the sonographer said a few things that alarmed me.
She said she couldn’t give me the results which is ok but then she said she noticed from my notes that I’d reported problems within this area a number of times and my GP had let me down. This statement then concerned me along with, ‘do I feel that my GP are reliable and will they pick this up?’ She then said the report will go to the hospital and if I don’t hear from my GP within 7 days, I’m to contact them and chase.
Her comments have filled me with fear, I recently had a routine smear and wasn’t worried about the results- fortunately negative. I try not to worry unnecessarily but she’s really scared me and when I said that i was worried, she said ‘why worry’ with every problem we must look to a solution?!
I then became petrified and googled ovarian cancer as soon as I got into my car and realized I had all of the symptoms and that is where I am now.
To make things even more worrying I have a mammogram booked 15th Dec as I have found a lump on either side of both breasts.
I’m trying to remain calm but am really struggling.. I’m torn between wanting the results and not…
