Hi ceecee13,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. It sounds like you've been through quite a bit recently although it's good that things seem to be moving fairly quickly - although I'm sure it may not feel like it.

It's quite common for results to be discussed in person regardless of what they are, so try not to read anything into it too much.

I see it's not too much longer to wait now - I know the uncertainty and waiting for information is never easy.

Whatever happens we're always here for support if you need it.

Wishing you all the best,

Ben

Hi

i understand your worry I'm 33 years old, I too have a thickened endometrium lining mine is 12-13mm. I have a TVS and biopsy on 8th December which come back negative. Just yesterday I have D&C with general anaesthetic and hysteoscopy. Now to wait the result......2 weeks no doubt. I would like to hear your results I hope and pray you receive good news. It's an awful worry. 
 

take care

Thank you Ben,

I go tomorrow at 12oclock .  
Im absolutely terrified , i feel like they'd have rang or sent a letter if everything was ok ? 
but lets see ....

Thank you for your reply

Hey ,

its a worrying time isnt it .  Doesn't help with being lockdown , just gives us more time to worry.

i am trying to stay positive ... please let me know how you get on .  I will let you know how things go tomorrow .

i have to say my treatment so far had been amazing so efficient,

cant praise the NHS enough

Take care

Have you any other symptoms? 
 

I have terrible lower back pain, pain in hips & pelvis and just within last few weeks now pain in my thighs and backs of legs along with Episodes of nausea . Headaches are terrible and never seem to be able to shift them. I also have terrible night sweats now for about 18 months, amongst a list of other hormonal symptoms. my periods have always been to the very time every 28 days without fail. This last year my periods have been anywhere from 19 days to 35 days, heavy and lots of tissue with clots. 
 

I go through spells of positivity then spells of thinking it all makes sense and answers my symptoms etc but in gods hands I shall leave it and pray no matter what the outcome he give the me the strength to cope and deal with whatever is placed upon me. 
 

the waiting game really sucks more than anything.......

I had a scan on Monday and within less than an hour of leaving I was told that I'm being referred on the urgent pathway for cancer. They said my lining is 21.1mm and I'm really worried as can't find anyone else with such a thick lining? 
 

How did you all find the hysteroscopy? I had a call today to try and get me in tomorrow morning but they never called back to confirm as I have requested GA due to an issue with the process in the past, so now awaiting another call in the morning and told likely Friday. 
 

I'm thinking I will just have to grin and bear the pain and have it without GA due to the urgency. It's all I can think about and feeling so stressed by it all. I'm 36 and a mum to three young girls, worst thoughts driving me crazy. 
 

Hey there

I had original TVs and biopsy done just in the office, booked for hysterosopy last Thursday, I couldnt deal with it so I went in on Monday for GA. best option by far. 
 

it's a very worrying time xx

Thanks so much for the reply, I'm feeling so anxious. 
 

Can I ask what TVS is? Maybe I should go Friday and have the biopsies etc done but continue to request GA for hysteroscopy. 
 

It's really helpful to read your experience x 
 

Tvs is just short for transvaginal scan. 
 

same. My anxiety is through the roof with it all. It's the not knowing and waiting that's the worst. I go through spells if feeling really positive and then down times of what if this or what if that etc I'm putting my own head away but only human at end of the day. 
 

if they give you an appointment on Friday just go and see what you can get from that appointment. 
 

in respect of your lining measurements, at what part of your cycle was this measurement done? hope you don't mind me asking that xx
 

Oh I see, thank you so much for clarifying. Yes my scan on Monday was TVS. 
 

I think I will go on Friday regardless of whether they accept my request for hysteroscopy via GA, as it's all I can think about at the min and like you say, may be able to get a biopsy at least. I'm now just wishing I'd just said yes to going tomorrow morning so I can just move on to the next stage of this process 

I don't mind the question at all, I'd stopped bleeding the night before the scan. I think that was even more cfc? Do you know anything in relation to lining and stage of periods that would help me? To me it seems scary to be so thick post a heavy period?
