Hi all hope your all well I had a procedure to remove a poly last Wednesday they did not find a polyp in the end but found I had a thickened endometrium they have taken a biopsy and I am waiting for results I am so worried I have 4 children that need me and I can’t bare to think of them being without me has anyone else been in this situation and if it’s cancer what happens next many thanks Rebecca
hey Rebecca, be positive, I was in the same situation 2 years ago this week. I thought I had polyps but sadly it was thickened lining, biopsy came back positive for cancer on 6th Dec and they offered me a full hysterectomy on 21st Dec. I kept telling myself that I was so lucky & thankful that I had insisted on being referred to hospital, as had I not been insistent to the doctor things would have got worse.
it was stage 1a , I had a full.hysterectomy, & back to work 6 weeks later and 2 years on all is still well.
keep yourself busy with christmas shopping and wrapping as this is what I did before the op.
hopefully you don't have cancer at all , but just know that a hysterectomy is usually all the treatment you need .
sending prayers and hugs, be strong x
Thank you for your speedy response I’m so sorry to hear it turned out to be cancer can I ask when they did the hysterectomy is there a chance cancer can come back after the hysterectomy many thanks Rebecca
