So my irons super low. Hemoglobin in the critical level. Went to the hospital per docs wishes. So they do a ton of tests and find a mass on my uterus. They set me up w a specialist but the apoitment is two weeks away and I'm freaking out. How likely is it that this is cancer??

It could be a large fibroid. Have you been bleeding too? They will do an MRI i expect, to confirm exact location/ size etc.

Yep had lots of spotting. Mri, that's the tube one right? Hopefully they can find a diffenrt method as I'm claustrophobic

You don't go right in the tunnel as they just want the pelvic area scanned. It's a bit noisy, but they give you headphones.

An mri is an excellent way of determining what is going on.

I had one of my knee once. So I don't go in all they way? That's not so bad.
