Hi I am waiting for a Hysteroscopy in end of march. I have been waiting 7 weeks and the stress, anxiety and fear is overwhelming and hardly any sleep. I was given a weeks supply of sleeping pills and told i wouldn't get anymore.
My symptoms seem to be everyone on the list for womb cancer, After ultrasound it shows 14MM thick womb i had pink discharge, blood in urine once, night hot flushes /head sweats and now i have lost 2 pounds in weight this week which has added even more anxiety to the mix. I am terrified i have womb cancer and it has spread and now i am on my last legs.
Is it actually possible to NOT have womb cancer or NOT ADVANCED even with all these symptoms, ????
anyone had these and been ok???
Thanks for reading.
Yes I had womb cancer. As Jane said ask about a cancellation list. That’s what I did and I got one 3 weeks earlier. The waiting is horrific that was the worst point,
it is just a waiting game each stage but you have to go with it as they have things to do each stage and they won’t be rushed as they need to ensure you get the correct treatment
Thanks for your comments, I will try and keep busy and try and calm down and get some sleep. I am trying so hard to get through this and know when the biopsy is done i will get some answers. fingers crossed.x
I have been on the cancellation list for last 6 weeks and still no phone call!!
thank you for your comments. i am sure i sent them to wrong person!!. i have been on cancellation list from when i asked for general and still no phone call, i doubt now i will get one as its 17th march. I will try and keep busy although always on my mind and at night i am worse, no sleep. anxious and hate the dark and quiet now. xx thank you for taking time to answer me. you take care . sending wishes. Jan xx
You are doing really well, its not an easy time and we have all been there so understand.
You can have pain relief for hysteroscopy by way of local anaesthetic and gas and air, but some ladies have GA. I hope you get your appointment soon...
Hi lolabear, My hysteroscopy is booked under General for 17th March so another couple of weeks. Ive waited 7 weeks in total. total nightmare. on cancellation list but doubt if i will get one now. xx
