Hard distended stomach and other symptoms.

Including needing to wee more, pain in my pelvis, feeling bloated, and, feeling full quicker than normal. My stomach is so distended, I look 7 months pregnant.

Google has terrified me, and I have a GP appointment tomorrow after I did an econsultation at the weekend. Doctor said it's important I attend. Been putting off contacting the GP as can never see anyone face to face, and rarely can you even get past the receptionists.

Not going to lie, I'm bricking it. Haven't discussed it with DH as he is a worrier.

Has anyone had similar and it not been anything serious.

I go through this every month. I have endometriosis and PCOS. It causes all the symptoms you've mentioned.

Ive had a hysterectomy, but retained my ovaries. The pelvic pains are very reminiscent of bad period cramps though.

Could well be scar tissue and endo.

Can you get endo without preciously having it?

I've had bloods taken, GP wants to rule out ovarian cancer as lots of symptoms point to it. Depending on blood results, I'm booked in for an ultrasound. So it'll be really quick if going the cancer route, or general if not.

I've so many health issues, it's probably nothing.
