Hello all, I am currently waiting and it is brutal..
After a long period of time (2 years!!) being dismissed by GP's I went private to a consultant for a trans-vaginal ultrasound where a "suspicious mass" was found on my right ovary.
Long story short I am now in the wonderful NHS and have been told that they think I have a Granulosa Cell Tumour and are recommending everything comes out (Uterus, tubes, ovaries, cervix and Omentum)
This is because of the location of the mass and the thickening of the lining of my womb (biopsy for this came back clear) which they believe is due to the oestrogen produced by the tumour.
Of course they cannot be sure until they remove it and send off for histology.
My surgery is scheduled for the 25th.
I am mostly trying to just get on with life until then but oh boy do I have some tough days..it is constantly at the back of my mind which is absolutely exhausting. I find myself sometimes worrying so much about the hysterectomy and surgical menopause then I stop myself and remember I haven't been worrying about the cancer. The waiting and not knowing is brutal.
I talk to friends and family but I wanted to speak to people who understood, I know there is nothing that can make this easier but to be understood can mean a lot x
