View Full Version : Just found out I'm pregnant again, terrified I've got cancer and can't cope
That's it really. I can't get an appointment to see my doctor for 2 weeks. I'm so scared I've got vowel cancer and on top of this scared about being pregnant again.
It's getting a bit much : (
Hi congratulations on your pregnancy! I know its scary to be pregnant especially when you have anxiety cos I've been there but it will be all worth it once you have your baby :-) its important to stay as stress free as possible. Why is it you think you have bowel cancer? Its much more likely to be ibs xxx
I loved being pregnant with my little boy, it's the only time I've ever been free of HA ironically. My HA has always been about bowel cancer- I had a breakdown almost 2 years ago to the day (just before I got pregnant) when I had a pain under my ribs that I was convinced was bowel cancer. I had various tests then went on sertraline and had CBT. I was fine until December when I had an anal fissure and it started all over. Since then I've had issues with stool colour and am always convinced its red (even though when I take a stool and look at it, it's brown and nothing on wiping).
I've spent most of the day in the loo examining my stool. I can't tell if there's anything wrong. I just hate my life.
Have you spoke to your dr recently? It's taking over your life clearly. You've had all the tests but still don't believe it. I really think you need to go back to your dr as you don't want to spend your pregnancy like this xxx
You should use a quick pregnancy test to determine if you're pregnant. There's also some methods to tell if you have cancer, these are methods you can try yourself without waiting consulting a doctor: bit.ly/15hxuh6 (http://bit.ly/15hxuh6)
On top of all this, you should really just relax. Everything will be fine :)
I've taken a pregnancy test. It's confirmed.
The problem with cancer symptoms is that I think I have them all. Apart from unexplained weight loss sadly!
Button can you get a dr appointment any sooner xxx
I can't deal with seeing anyone but my doctor. Every time I have it has been terrifying and makes me worse. I'm going away (which I dread) until 25th.I'm not sure what to do.
Some good news- I've got my first CBT appointment tomorrow....
Hope it helps button :-) xxx
Thanks, I think it will help to talk things through and try to map out a way forward.
I made a deal with myself this morning that after my next BM, I'd check and if there was nothing obviously wrong I wouldn't check again unless I'm feeling unwell.
There truly was nothing wrong- I couldn't remotely see anything red. So I'm OK to stop right?
Of course. It would be excellent if you could stop. Try not to look at all after the next one xxx
