Hi,
just been to the GP, could anyone help me figure out what is happening.
urine dipstick normal.
This has developed over the past three days.
She pressed my abdomen while I was lying down, and then I went and sat back in the chair I started crying with pain as there was like spasmodic pain where she had pressed and I had to lie back down again. It feels like it centres on my right ovary. It feels like maybe right ovary area has been tender for a couple of weeks. Last period started on 20/2/23.
that kind of awful tenderness is everywhere, like back passage and front passage making it hard to find a comfortable sitting position.
It is incredibly uncomfortable where the cervix meets the vagina, that’s really why I went. There’s a sensation of maybe fluid or if I had to guess an abscess or something, on both sides at that point, and if I bend over or sit at the wrong angle there is a sensation of tearing there, then the pain takes a long time to subside.
when lying down On my side, I have the feeling to keep a knee up and open, to stop the feeling of something being compressed there where the vagina meets the cervix, to relieve the pain
pain is almost nauseating now.
Has become difficult and painful to wee, smaller stream, and very frequent urgency. But urine test normal.
there is also a bit of vulval pain in the past 12 hours.
as of last night dread pooing as there is like a tearing sensation in different bits now too. Even sitting in the loo at gp to try and give the urine sample there was that tearing sensation when tried to sort of open ureter or whatever muscle is used to wee when you are trying to wee.
I don’t think there’s any abnormal vaginal discharge but I can’t really tell. Maybe clear.
I feel so unwell. She referred for a routine ultrasound that may take some weeks.
it’s hard to sit on a chair even, everything is so tender and have to shift position.
feel slightly feverish but no fever. Not much appetite.
she said not appendicitis as she pressed there.
Im not sure what to do next. Feels like I’m getting worse by the day.
is it a reproductive system thing or a urinary tract thing or something else.
I had sexual contact last 3.5y ago. Went to GUM clinic a week after the encounter and all was clear.
did not do vaginal exam as I have not had intercourse before. So have never had a vaginal exam.
as I sit here pain in right ovary region radiates to hip.
I’m going to have a little lie down just to say that here in case my replies are slow.
she gave me some hormonal blood tests and also a full blood count which I’ll try and do today or tomorrow. The hormone tests I have to do later in the Month I think.
she has given me also vaginal swabs but I am in too much pain to do it now and she didn’t think it would show anything.
she couldn’t explain the tearing sensation or tenderness and just said go to a and e if it gets worse.
