Worried sick
Posted , 4 users are following.
I had a failed Hysteroscopy two weeks ago. So had another one with a general anasthetic on Friday. They removed a small polyp and saw two small fibroids. But I'm really panicking now because the dr thought my endometrium was a little thick. So she scraped the lining and has sent it off for biopsy. I have to now wait for the result. She said by the looks of it it looked fairly normal but wanted to be sure by having the cells looked at. This all started because I was losing some brown mucky discharge between periods. I'm Peri menopausal at 54. I'm so scared even though dr said she would've very surprised if it came back sinister.

Hi sweetie I know saying don't worry is pointless since you will anyway. But your doctor is right a thickening of endrometrium is not abnormal during peri menopause. You've probably always had it and just never knew. The brown discharge is probably older blood/cells shedding before you hit full menopause. I've had it before at the beginning and ending of my periods. I also had the same procedure you did 3 years ago. I had polyps and fibroids removed. Along with a d&c all coming back normal. I had it because my periods were crazy heavy and long. I was 42 then. I'm 45 now and things are better. You will be ok. Keep us updated 😊

i was in a bit of pain when i came around if im honest. Its been 5 days and im still losing a watery pink liquid and am having cramps like a period, but nothing a paracetonol wont get rid of. Im just so happy im in the clear with my results, anything else is easy fo rme from now on. You will be fine after your op. just ask for pain relief when you come round.

I'M OK !!!!!!
I got my results today and everything is all clear. I have made myself physically ill over the past month worrying i have cancer. NOTHING would convince me otherwise until i saw the results from the lab for myself.
I'm so happy today, but now i am determined not to get myself in such a tizzy over something like that again, so im going to get some CBT for my health anxiety.
