Right, well here I am again looking for some support. 4 weeks ago I went to my doc for a blood test to see if I am menopausal (I'm only 43 but had been experiencing hot flushes) anyway it was confirmed that I am in the menopause but it also showed abnormal liver function results.
My doc said they were only slightly raised and asked what my alcohol consumption was. Anyway after telling her I drink between 1 & 2 large glasses wine every night, she suggested that was prob what it was but there was a small chance could be connected to my previous breast cancer! Panicked! Give up drinking and repeat the test. Dd this and 2nd test abnormal but not as much. Repeat test next week. Whilst this was going on I was in terrible pelvic back pain ( which my anxiety had me thinking the worse ) turned out to be a wee infection.
Of course, I couldn't stop myself googling to see if connected and now I'm terrified again.
Don't know how much more I can take. Got my mammogram check this week too.... :-(
Any support or words of wisdom, welcome.
Thankyou
