Period again after none for 2 years?

How did it go Sue?  Well, I hope

Ive been told my skin condition isnt serious and that I have a rectoceal and cystoceal.  I had my mirena coil removed and I was told everything looked fine but Im to have a transvginal ultrasound on the 14th when i should also be given the results of my smear test.  Im still no further forward really but Im calm so thats good.

 

Thanks for asking Birdie, in my case, stage 1 endometrial cancer, this is the most common gynecological cancer, and if caught early has a good prognosis. I am just at the start of this journey, but I am hoping that the problem gets fixed (what else can I do?) To be honest, I'm not really shocked by the cancer since I have several conditions, PCOS, and Diabetes that are known factors in this sort of cancer.

Im very sorry to hear that Sue.

Hi Paula

the same thing happened to me last month ...i went to the doctors straight away and she refered me to gyne ..i got my appointment within a week ..i was so scared so i know how you feel

i had a camera were the specialist looked at my womb and ovaries ..i had a slight thickening of the womb so had to go back for another camera to look further into my womb

the nurses and doctors are amazing and ever so friendly

mine turned out to be the" last hurrah" ...i was so relieved and they said it is quite a common thing to happen post menopause. .but it always needs investigating

Good luck to you on your tests

I know its hard not to worry ..but you have done the right thing

and dont look up on the internet ..i did that too and scared the life out of myself ..

Keep us updated on how you get on 😊x

Thank you suesun.....  I am not going to read anything negative at the moment..it's all too scary.. am hoping for something and nothing...  ..  Ofcourse I will keep you updated...so glad I found you all...x

Hi Suesun.... just un update..... after my gyne appointment being postponed for one week.. went in today 12 june this morning....  He took a pap test and all looked fine... had a pelvic (echographe and vaginal scan) he has all the scanning equpment in his office... endo is 3,7 mm so that was okay...  he found a 5cm cyst on my left ovary... he said that it was a mixture of liquid and organic, he said that there could be number of causes eg old scarred ovary and tube..but needs to be checked.... if the blood tests were high and the MRI confirmed he will take out the cyst by keyhole... had a blood test this morning will have results in tomorrow morning and waiting for an MRI which he ordered urgently... had a call from the radiologist this evening can't fit me in until 3rd August... but she said will be trying 2 other hospitals tomorrow.  All happening so fast and everyone is lovely.. although I would rather not wait for an MRI and get this thing out asap.. I don't need my ovaries anymore........   keeping positive but hacked off at the same time... this time last year I broke my ankle and missed Summer.. was really looking forward to this Summer and our holiday in July... hopefully we can still go for my 12 year old sons sake.... he was such a help last year... I would hate him to miss out this year !!! Onwards and upwards...... keep you  posted...xx

Hi Paula

im glad your scan went well....i too have a cyst on my left ovary and i have an appointment this thursday for an ultrasound scan ..jeezzz this getting old malarky is such a pain in the a***. Ive never worried so much about all the feelings and symptons that are going on via peri/menopause 😠

arghh im sure this summer will be good for you..you go on that holiday with your son and enjoy yourself try to put scans and menopause on hold for a while ..what did us women do to deserve all this grief 😨 arghhhh

it gets to that point were you wake up each morning and think ...right ...whats in store for me today lol...but as you say Onwards and Upwards

please do keep me posted. ..ill let you know how i do on Thursday

xxx 😊

Hi Suessun,

I know if it's not one thing it's another....  but like you say onwards and upwards... am hoping this will be all sorted quickly....   my gyne is very good and explains everything before during and after in detail.... but we all have the worry of waiting for test results and scan dates etc..... my heart goes out to all the women who are left in the dark, brushed away and totally confused....

   I hope everything goes smoothly for you on Thursday.... yes keep me posted and I will let you know this end too..

 

Hi Suessun,

I hope everything went well for you on Thursday..  update for me... got the results from my blood test: CA125 - 41,  HE4 - 17 and ROMA - low risk...  am going for an MRI on Tuesday and depending on the results of this will probably be having the cyst out, I hope by laproscopy....   My poor family are hanging for this holiday... the thoughts of dissapointing again...... I know they will be supportive.. but it's tough... had crap time with work and clients.... feeling down... but will crawl out of this hole... hope all is well with you...

Hi Paula

Im hoping you get to go on that holiday you so deseve ..im sure they will understand and arrange for you to have surgery (if you need the cyst removed) when you have been away. I HOPE SO

I know you must be feeling down lifes such a struggle with hormones flying everywere and we tend to worry about everything and everyone ..which doesnt help i have many days like that to and wish it would all go away for a while and just feel normal again.

I didnt go for my scan last week i had a stomach bug...so its rescheduled for the 13th july...

Hope you are feeling somewhat better and hang in there all will be ok

We beat ourselves up so many times dont we ....ill let you know how i get on and plz keep in touch still ..let me k ow how you are

Xxxx

Hi Suessun... just an update... had MRI results back saying 'probable mucineous borderline cyst'.. so ovary is to come out... have an appointment to see the gyne/onc on the 16th July.... so will be making a special 4 hour trip back in our holiday... to see him and then see what happens with a surgery date...  will keep you posted.... and good luck with your scan on the 13th.... xxxx

 

Hi Paula

Im glad.you are getting sorted out ..and that you can still go away on holiday ..bit of a bummer tho having to make that 4 hour journey back ..but at least its all sortsd now .

I wish you well with your op ...i know you will be fine tho..

Ive been having heebee jeebees with this menopause malarky ..i thought once id gotton past peri it would be fine but the anxiety and other symtons post peri are just as bad ..

Bloomin heck what us poor women go through ay lol..defo coming back a man ha ha ..

Anyways ill let.you know how i get on and vice versa ..were are you going to on holiday. ..me and the hubby could.do with a nice holiday..we may go for a couple.of days b&b

Take care xxxx

Great to hear from you Suessun....

Yep a bit happier now we can get away... We live in France and have booked an apartment with pool 4 hours away not far from the coast...,so we are going to integrate the appointment by not going back home but staying in a hotel not far from the hospital.. which means we do not have to get up at stupid O'clock for the appointment which is at 8:15am....then all going well we can set off back to the apartment and resume our holiday with an appointment for surgery after we return....hopefully it works out this way...

I know you feel so up and down with these meno symptoms...although I think I have been luckier than most from what I see on this site... 

Yes head off for a couple of days... a change of air really helps   Ofcourse I will keep you up dated....

Talk soon,

Paula xx
