found a lump

[Vikingqueen]

i have stage 4 endometriosis and have been waiting to have a hospital appointment rescheduled since just before the first lockdown. I recently found a solid mass that I can feel on the left side of my pelvis i was told I have kissing ovaries that are stuck together behind my uterus a few years ago so I'm assuming it's not ovarian, but it's freaked me out a bit. My drs cant see me until the second week of November! My periods are getting progressively worse and I can't seem to get anyone to listen to me. has anyone else been able to feel a solid mass? There is a history of ovarian, cervical and uterine cancer in my family and it's extremely frustrating that I can't get my drs to take me seriously. I was just wondering if anyone had experienced anything similar?

I haven’t experienced this, but I wanted to wish you well and hope you are able to speak to a medical professional very soon to put your mind at rest. Take care.

Hi, all I’m going to say is keep bugging them! If you don’t push things, who will?

Good luck! X

Hi Vikingqueen

If you've only recently found the lump then it's important to get it checked out. Keep pushing for a doctor's appointment. You could also try ringing NHS Direct on 111 if you're not getting anywhere with your local surgery.
