Hi,
I’ve started a thread previously and got lots of good advice from Jane.
I had a biopsy on my first appointment with consultant and , through a portal, I was told I had a 1A tumour in the endometrium . Not the best way to get info but there we go. On ringing gynae secretary she told me I should have had an appointment set out for end of May but for some reason this hadn’t happened. So I’ve waited and waited and my appointment with consultant is next week. In the same batch of post I have an ultrasound booked,for the week after, for lymph nodes in neck and also a pelvic transvaginal ultrasound on the same day.
My question is that when I’ve looked online about next steps it says that an MRI or CT would be next. I had an over tummy ultrasound at the start of all this. Is this normal? Has anyone else had a transvaginal ultrasound after similar biopsy findings?
I’m hoping that this is a good sign but then worrying is more time being wasted?
All thoughts welcome
Thankyou
They were fine! Had my hysterectomy early October 2022, brachytherapy December 2022. Had some minor side effects e.g. UTIs a few months after the brachytherapy finished. I had a total abdominal hysterectomy which, surprisingly, didn't give me a lot of pain, more discomfort. Hope all goes well with you.
You sound v positive! It’s great that you’ve got through all that! Well done
Eep I certainly do not miss the full bladder requirement or being interrogated about my bowel movements daily.
Hope your treatments continue to go well
