Awaiting urgent gynaecology app

[Lozza2922]

Back in august 2020 i attended the doctors after been 7 days late with my period (usually like clockwork) ,bloating and constipation. After having blood test foundy ca125 levels were slightly raised at 45. So had another one which came back at 64, so ended up with transvaginal scan and ultrasound and then a ct scan all have been clear.

So then my bloods were repeated and it had gone to 40 so she decided to review in 6 months which was april they came back at 40 again. So she said have another one in 6 months if levels remain same im happy that this is normal for you anyway they came back last week at 72. So now been referred to gynaecology as an urgent appointment.

I am so worried i am 37 have always had heavy pperiods and sometimes can lose big clots , i suffer with back ache and i get stomach pains when due on.

Also my vit D levels are slightly low

Just want abit of advice

Thanks
