Hi all,

I have intermitant pain (its mostly there) in my groin/pelvic area and my lower back, im feeling more than usual and i get full easier.

ive seen my doctor and shes referred me for a scan but i could take about 6 week (will prob be after xmas now :-( )

im freaking out that i have it.......what else could this be?

    This sounds like me right now and I am worried sick as well.The only difference is I have pains in the upper belly along with the pelvic area.Today I had a lot of heartburn and nausea as well.Dr originally said UTI,but urine was negative and I have been waiting for gyno appointment next week.

    It is weird because the pelvic pain alternates sides by my ovaries.Today the pain radiated all of my belly..AND I am soooo bloated.Every time I checked symptoms ovarian cancer came up.So,your not alone with w worry and I wish I knew what was going on...Waiting stinks!!!!😞

    you are clearly panicking and half of what you feel is from panicking your symptoms can be anything like a cyst or a UTI 

    regarding the appendix issue 

    appendicitis goes down to your right leg there is tenderness and pain when touching there is loss of apetite and high temperature and weight loss in sever cases

    and in acute cases you won't know it and the symptoms aren't really typical 

    the only thing you can do to confirm is an ultrasound I know it's far and the time till the scan will be hard and tensive for u but you should start relaxing and stop diagnosing yourself if it's cancer the Dr shall confirm so it can also be a typical cyst of a fibroid

    i am.in the same boat... worrying myself sick... had pelvic pain for 5 months and lower back pain... i do have 2 prolapses bladder and rectum... and my g.p doesnt think my back ache is connected to my pelvis pain.... however the pelvis pain isnt as bad but its uncomfortable and when its my period its really really painful.. sharp burning period pains... i noticed that my cycle has gone from 5 days to 3 and thats pushing it... i worry that its something seriously bad and that i am gonna die... its terrifying and feeling like this with a husband and a little one is just awful... i hope all u ladies feel better soon xx
