Hi i had my hysteroscopy 11 days ago and the consultant sat on my bed and said im very worried ...as your liming is very thick was told it was a little thick 15 months ago so confused and worried ...could he be wrong in his assumption also can ca125 be slightly raised in womb cancer ..im scared i have womb cancer and ovarian and im going to die ....sorry i am in such a mess i wish he had told me nothing til i knew

Ylu really need to take a deel bresthe, get a pen and paper and wrire down everybsinfmgke question and concern. I expect he made a general comnent which was scary and not explained. We could all guess but you need to know facts and exactly what hevis talking about .

You will also need to wait for the full psthology report which will detail exactly what you have. Withoutwaiting for mine I would have thought I had both appendix and borderline cancers

Take a deep breath and ask .

Its much better than the worryinwg unknown

Great advice from Clare. I was going to suggest you ask for the pathology report and when that would be available. Certainly ask to speak to him or his assisting doctors immediately though to go over what he has said so far and exactly what he meant.

Take care. You have just had a big op. X

Hi I'm sorry your having these worries. On my first visit to my GP, she carried out an internal examination and said to me, your uterus is very bulky, has anyone ever told you this? I had never been told this and my fear then was womb cancer. Anyway, long story but I only have ovarian cancer.

Until its been tested in the lab, you won't know. He has voiced concerns, perhaps he just wanted to plant a seed so that you'd give it some thought. I tend to cope by thinking, what's the worst this can be? Anything less than that is a bonus. I know this doesn't work for everybody but forewarned is forearmed so to speak.

I imagine we all think of dying when we are told we have cancer, I know I did and I struggled with it, especially when I saw my two little grandsons who were one and just under one at the time. I'm still here four years on, I'm going nowhere without a fight! I now have 4 grandchildren and I've done things I would never have, like speaking in Westminster! We are here for you and will offer support when you reach out to us.

Thinking of you. Ann xx
