Hi Wilma08
I am sorry to hear that you have had a heavy bleed with clots and that is different to normal. Whatever has caused it I would recommend contacting your GP today for some advice and reassurance. A 20 minute heavy PV bleed with clots needs checking. During my diagnosis and tests my nurse specialist said to me that sort of bleed would be considered a haemorrhage and if it happened to me then I would need to seek medical advice asap. This amount of bleeding was what led to me going to A+E

Hi Wilma
I am glad that you managed to get a telephone appointment with your GP today. It sounds like a good plan for him to be speaking with the oncologist about the bleeding and to change the scan to make sure everything is covered.
I am not surprised you are feeling really tired. The bleeding plus the appointment is a lot to deal with. Hopefully you will have a settled evening and are able to rest up a bit while waiting for your scan next Wednesday.
Good Luck with the scan and if there is anything else you need please do ask.

Thanks 2511, To be honest I was pondering what to do then decided to phone the GP and got the last appointment or I would have been calling at 08:00am for over an hour only to be told you need to tomorrow so someone or something was watching over me.
Hi WILMA 08
Since having the Mirena coil inserted I discharged plenty of blood with lots of thick near sculpture like additions.
I am hoping its my womb lining cells they are try to shed.
I hope you managed to get some medical guidance and positive support in your hospital appointment.
