Endo or ovarian cancer..freaking.

Ok since june I've had symptoms.

Pelvic pain, constipation, lower back pain, stomach pain, pains in my legs, period pain when i never used to get any. Ive been back and forth to my drs so many times, A&E so many times, Ive had A CT scan which showed no tumors or growths but they say fluid around my left ovary. Ive had a pelvic ultrasound on my ovaries and they looked really clear. Ive had about 5-6 full blood counts in a&e and another blood test done - not sure what it was but just another routine one - all normal. Ive had drs poke my stomach and say it feels normal and soft.. not hard like can happen in ovarian cancer.

Has anyone else been through this journey too, the wondering and not knowing if its something serious or endometriosis?

I do like to think any big tumors or growths would have shown up by now but I'm just so worried.

I'm only 26 and i just can't believe how worried i am and how i am ignored by NHS gp's.

I ordered a priviate CA125 blood test to sent off on monday to see if levels which relate to ovarian cancer and endo are present.

I have a priviate appointment with a gyno on tuesday through spire.

I had 4 days last week of no pain.. my period was 3 days away and my pain was back :(

I've had a lack of appetite and upset stomach mainly due to anxiety with all of this i think..

i imagine there is other people going through this or have been through this scary journey..
