Post-menopause bleeding & 22mm endometrial lining. Awaiting diagnosis

I was exact same scenario . Womb 22 MMS thick.  and it a polyp and it never showed up on ultrasound. Apparently it was a long skinny bugger
unlike me lol.  Try not to scare yourself by thinking worst because I did same. I lost weight and didn't sleep for months.   What a waste of overthinking I did!!.  The surgeon told me straight after that everything looked fine and not to worry. I still did until I got the ok letter !!.  Honestly don't overthink . You got a date for your biopsy yet ? X

I'm tentatively scheduled for Nov 5th.  Waiting to hear from the anesthesia people to make sure I can have it done because I have a heart issue , SVT.  I've had more panic attacks then I care to mention.  Ugh and many sleepless nights. 

I'm in the US, I'm not sure where you're located.  This is definitely scary.  

Ok not long to go then. I'm in UK.  Yes panic attacks, sweating, the fear was intense. Absolutely horrendous it was.  Honestly looking back I went through hell and didn't know anything at that time.he waiting is hell. Causes you to overthink and to think the worst scenario. Keep busy, talk to friends and the waiting won't seem too bad.  You've got this

• Thanks for helping me get through this!  I just barely turned 60 and this wasn't what I had in mind for a happy ( belated) birthday present. Ugh.  I've been a mess with this.  The Drs scare you with the way they talk too. 

Oh your welcome. I am same age and  I had this scare between Xmas and New year! . It was a shock.  The doctors I guess want to make you aware of what could be worst scenarios.  Don't let this scare you . Concentrate on keeping yourself positive and don't dwell. This is very common symptom . I had my biopsy with 6 other women and we were all fine.  The doctors are there to rule it out rather then the opposite!. Keep positive and don't let your mind get to crazy xx

You're right!  I need to stay positive!  He did mention several times today about it possibly being a hidden polyp.  My health anxiety is bad though, and my mind goes to the worst in every situation

I bet it's a polyp hidden like mine was. My mind works overtime too. I'm a worrier by nature and always think the worst. Honestly I'm sure you will be fine. It's the waiting that causes this!.  I can relate. Honestly made my self sick with worry for no reason at all.  You get some rest and try not to let your mind go nuts .  X

• I'm not sure if my replies are going through.  Did you have to have any follow ups? Or did they just take the polyp out? 

They took polyp out at biopsy and they send to pathology . I had to wait 8 weeks for results to come back but all was fine. Surgeon at time said my womb was healthy and no signs of anything sinister so just had to wait for confirmation. They know what they are looking at so trust the process x

Oh ok.  My DR wants to do a D&C and hysteroscopy at the same time. He said he'll be going in to look for a polyp and also be doing a biopsy of tissues.  At least it's all in one shot I guess.  Still nerve wracking though
