STILL waiting for a date for my effing ovary scan to come through. Argh!
In the meantime, the dull ache is still there. If it was just an ache, I'd be ok with it I think. However, coupled with the very dodgy head feelings (fuzziness, fullness down back of head, neck and ears, brief flashes of OMG SOMETHING'S WRONG, dodgy feeling in stomach/chest like pulsing) I am imagining all sorts of things to be wrong.
Am convinced the cause of the ovary-area pain (ovarian, bowel or cervical cancer) has spread and is causing these feelings. Keep poking around for lymph nodes but no lumps can be felt (thank god! I dread to think how I'd be then). I also don't have any symptoms like bleeding at odd times or a swollen tummy.
So why do I feel like this?
Thing is, I'm not making these symptoms up. I actually do feel them. THAT's what causes anxiety...if I didn't have them, I wouldn't be anxious. I just feel that the symptoms are worse than they are, causing anxiety.
BOO. :(
