Ct scan clear

[mortigger]

Hi my consultant has said that ca125 and vaginal ultrasound and ct scan are all clear and that she can see no evidence of cancer is it usualky a ct scan used to detect oc.. she says she wants a mri to decide what type of cysts they are im worried she is not telling me something and wants mri for another reason i have not been fast tracked ive waited for the mri for a month and apparently has a appt for me in clinic for the 5th september..shud i look at other reasons for some of my symptoms ..i do think some are stress ...thanks all xxx

I think sometime they dont like to scare till they know more. My cyst the gyno said probably hemorragic so they dont know so wont say till either it goes or taken out to check unless you ask questions direct I think they tell you bear minimum till they know told me they are looking for endometriosis with or without cystectomy

Leanne my consultant has told me that she is not looking for cancer and cudnt see any on the ct scan ....sob just wants the mri to check the cysts ..

Hi there yes c.t gives a good honest picture of what is going on. Obviously your consultant is being careful by adding in mri to be sure. Try not to worry there are all various benign cysts so maybe mri identifies the type not sure. Maybe ring the Ovacome helpline tomorrow for more advice.

Hi moretigger,

Try not to worry tho it's easier said than done. I think there's no doubt she is telling you all that she knows as she sees it at the moment. Presumably she has no concerns as she wouldn't be leaving your mri til Sept! If the worry is really troubling I would explain this too to them and ask for an earlier appointment. In my case (nearly 30 years ago) things moved pretty quickly once there was a possibility my ovarian cyst was malignant ( it was!). But still here to tell the tale.

Wishing you all the best.
