spotting ??

dear everyone,

I am 50 years old. always have irregular periods. terrified of going to doctors.

i've been living under chronic stress and it hit all-time high stress this Feb. after that, I had a weird epioside of flutterness in chest in middle of night, went to ER, thinking I was not going to make it. heart/ lung / some blood work were fine, doctor thinks it might be acid reflux/ stress. I agreed.

about 2 months later, another extreme stress episode hit, my period came 2 x in one month. I got my guts together and talk to GP, was sent to get transvaginal ultrasound. 2 small fibroid, possible one polyp- radiologist is not sure if it's polyp or what. i finally went to gynocologist, he wants to do hysteroscopy , i was scared , doctor agreed to wait and see, he is not sure if irregular bleeding came from perimenopause, or fibroid or polyp.... fast forward another 2 months, i was due for period , started spotting a few days before, finally full flow started for 3 days, then stopped completely for one day, then just light 3 days after that, then started like a speck of brown spot everyday, some days specks are more some day almost none. that's been 4 days now. i've noticed the slightly larger amount always happen on my work days. I am almost scared of going to bathroom only to see brown spots again. and bladder leakage- urgency to pee... sigh.. .. i've also noticed maybe its hot flash in middle of night, like surge of heat and like period might come, that type of weird feeling.... i have appt next week with gynecologist and might go for hysteroscopy soon, again, I am very scared.... just wondering if any of you have spotting problem ?? thank you very much for your time
