Well went to bed can't sleep really uncomfortable belly and groin area really scared even more tonight
Can't stop thinking what is going on so scared it's going to be advanced because of uncomfortable feeling
I am having similar fears. I went to OBGYN for a basic appointment and pap smear results. It was all clear and I was about to leave when I asked about my period ls becoming super light and am I entering menopause or peri? My OB said let's do a transvaginal ultrasound. She sat me down immediately after and said my lining was 19 or 90mm. I can't remember now. It's all been a shock. She tried to do a biopsy right there. But because my cervix is tight from no childbirth she only reached the endocervical canal. That sample came back negative but the biospy of the uterus is scheduled for Monday. I have to just go ahead and be put to sleep so they can get past the cervix and I'm terrified of being under anathesia. That's a MAJOR FEAR IVE HAD FOR YEARS. Anyhow, I've been a nervous case since all this and waiting. I went to PCP who did a pelvic exam and I'm super tiny...so he could feel pretty well. He said my uterus felt fine and he did another pap. It came back clear. He did blood work. Clear but the blood work doesn't catch cancer he said. I checked the symptoms online. I don't have any of those except I PEE A LOT BUT I've been peeing a lot for years and years from overreactive bladder. I don't have bleeding or discharge. I don't have pain with sex or anything else. However I did have an extraordinary period in February where the pain was so extreme that narcotics didn't relieve it..it was a pain level of about a 8 out of 10. However that period as bad as it was ended in 5 days and was over. I do have endometriosis so I attributed the bad period to that plus coming off birth control after a year and finally having a bleed after many months. So I don't know. What were other people's early symptoms.
Hi Phleb
I have just responded to your other post. This uncomfortable feeling could be part of you not being able to have your bowels open. Please get in touch with your CNS/GP to get checked out.
if you want to talk things through first, then please speak with one of the nurses on the Support Line. The details are below.
