Ultrasound miss a large fibroid?

Posted , 1 user is following.

Is this possible?

My GP claimed to feel 'a large mass, feels like a fibroid' on my uterus.

But at the ultrasound, the sonographer said she could see no evidence of any mass anywhere, only some scarring around my ovaries and an enlarged uterus.

i just dont know what to think now, how could the doctor feel a large mass but there be no such mass detected on ultrasound?
