Hi everyone. I'm here seeking some advice about what to expect from my first gynaecology appointment.
I went to my GP a few months ago after my periods decided to go from being like clockwork to turning up when they felt like it. I also developed a horrible pain in my right side. My initial reaction was perimenopause as I hit 40 and things went down hill...
The GP done a CA125 which was borderline high and I was referred for an urgent ultrasound. I had pelvic and TV done which showed a complex cyst on my left ovary.
I was then referred for a repeat ultrasound around 4 weeks later which showed the cyst was still there. It also showed that my endometrium lining was thicker than expected for the stage of my cycle.
GP repeated CA125 and it came back elevated so an urgent referral has been put in to gynaecology.
I now have an appointment at the Royal Infirmary in Glasgow next week and I wondered if anyone could tell me if they will do any further tests or if it will just be a quick chat and out?
Thanks
