Hi, Terry, sorry you're going through this. If your uterine stripe is above 4, you need to have a biopsy. Usually results come back within 3 - 5 days. Your doctor is taking this seriously, as she should.
But, you have done the right thing to seek out treatment as soon as you did. Get in to see that specialist as soon as you can!
Please try to take this process one step at a time. I know this is really scary. Many women go through this and the ladies on this site are here to support you.
Best of luck to you, and let us know how you get on! Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi, Terry,
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your husband! I'm sorry that he suffered from such a devastating illness.
Unfortunately, it's difficult to predict whether you have cancer, or not. I think that sometimes it's best not to speculate, but deal with what happens.
Could you let me know your age?
I'd be happy to answer your questions.

Hi, Terry,
Sure, I'm in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Not snowing here, but we had very nice warm temperatures last week. This morning, that's at an end, and all is windy and cold.
I will be 68 this March. I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer, and had a hysterectomy in July, 2016.

I'll be glad to help in any way I can!
