Hi,
im new to this forum and its very good!!
I had an ultrasound scan on my uterus and ovaries on saturday because of some abdo pain and past history of fertility drugs, which have made me paranoid.
The radiographer said she could see some cysts in both of my ovaries which totally freaked me out. She said dont go away worrying, there is nothing to worry about, so i didnt ...until today :(
She said book an appointment with your Doctor for 10 days time and i will scan you again in 6 weeks time. I was shocked that i got a call from my Doctors this morning to go pick up a blood test form. I panicked thinking how quick it was from radiologist tio Doctor, but maybe being a Saturday she was just trying to tie up all her reports by faxing them through to Doctors.
On the form was "ovarian cysts" and the request was for a CA25 marker test to be carried out. I freaked and rang the pathologist at the hspital and he reassured me that if any cysts are ever present the first thing they do is test the blood doing the CA25 test.
I had the test done immediately and am now waiting 2 days for the results...im FREAKING out, one part of my brain is saying "dont be silly she said she wasnt concerned" the other part is saying why the heck has the GP got hold of me so quick?"
Im terrified i have ovarian cancer, i had a lot of fertility treatment about 10 years ago, and ive looked at some of the symptoms of OC and i have them :(
Has anyone else been trough this, im sick with worry, so stressed.
