Another scan possbile worry!

Posted , 2 users are following.

hey!

i had a 11cm cyst on my right ovary at the start of this year- in april the cyst, my ovary and tube were removed from my right side as my team and the cancer team didnt know if it was cancerous or not as my scans were not clear so thats why they removed everything- lucky enough it came back clear once tested- i had open operation.

i saw my consultant who done my OP In august and he refered me for an interal scan for my left ovary as i had left sided pain which i havent had in a while now ( they had to so it as interal scan because your bowel covers your left ovary)

today i got a letter through to have the same scan again but i havent even had my results from the scan which i had about a month ago. i phoned the number to book the scan to have for a second time and i was asking about results but she couldnt give them to me which i alreadly knew but did tell me that my consulant had put on the system that he wanted the scan to be reperted in 6-8 weeks.

should i be worried about this? something has shown up on my last scan or they wouldnt be doing it again.

im worried that its possbile cancer or something else serious..... but surely if it was something serious would they of contacted me? and would they wait 6-8 weeks to re scan me?

im only 24 years old so this is a worry.

could this be a cyst on my left side?

just need some help

thanks

      thanks for commenting. thats thing i dont know what the results are from my scan last month- they just wanted to do it again in 6-8 weeks.

      so if it was serious like cancer- would i of had another scan a lot sooner than 6-8 weeks?

      surely they would have told me if they expected anything serious?

      is this more likely to be a small cyst?

      when they done my operation in april it all all clear from anything else.

      if it was cancer they would have told u or called u and u would have the scan done sooner then 6 weeks with them wanting to do the scan in 6 to 8 weeks it is more likely a small cyst cause if it was bigger they would see u sooner i hope everything turns out ok
