Have had terrible lower abdo pain on and off for about a year (since I stopped taking the pill coincidentally), mainly around time of ovulation and on the 5-6 days leading up to my period. I also need the loo more often than most but I put that down to having my children and it's not new to me.
I went to my GP last week who did an internal. He says he's worried that there is pain in my right ovary and has referred me to the gynae consultant at the hospital in 2 weeks - appt. is 26th March. Last night I read that the referral times for GPs suspecting cancer at 2 weeks and now I'm terrified.
Part of me is rational about it - he'd have told me if he suspected anything sinister right? But the other part is hysterical with fear. I already told my GP I was terrified of getting sick and leaving my children and now I am overplaying the whole thing in my head.
What shall I do? I am considering ringing my GP tomorrow and asking him straight out. Does anyone have any experiences please? Just need to talk to someone I think.
