Situated in the midline closely associated to/?arising from
the vaginal vault and indenting the bladder is a small well
circumscribed avascular mass measuring 21 x 15 x 17.8 mm.
The exact aetiology is uncertain.
Gynaecology referral is recommended for further evaluation.
.
Both ovaries appear within normal limits on today's
examination.
No obvious large adnexal masses or pelvic free fluid is
seen.
Does anyone know what this could mean? Dr rang today and wants further tests done,I asked if it meant cancer and she said it didn't have the characteristics of a tumour but it obviously doesn't mean to say it isn't,she said it could just be scarring from my vaginal hysterectomy done 13 years ago. Any thoughts anyone?
-
How soon will the appt. be offered, R U able to take a cancellation at short notice?
Best to get it looked at, 2 put your mind at rest. 'no obvious large masses' .........
I think if you were at risk the appt. would be ASAP .
-
She's fast tracked it clkd,so within two weeks she hopes
-
Off for a break then? Nothing will happen ........... :bighug:
-
Hopefully the appointments come through quickly Jaypo.

Hi Jaypo - blimey it's all worrying isn't it? ???
All I could find when I did a google was the following:
Avascular means: tissues that are devoid of any blood supply by arteries, veins, or capillaries.
Circumscribed means: confined to a limited area
Aetology means: the study of the causes of a disease
Now weather this is any help to you I don't know but it could be a cyst or possibly a fibroid. Do not worry about it being a 2 week referral - this will always happen if they see anything out of the ordinary & the % of it being anything sinister is very, very low.
I know it's going to worry you, I was the same in January but stay positive & try not to worry. It sounds like you're in good hands.

Thank you so much cazikins, I really appreciate that,very helpful.I'm really hoping it's just something simple.
-
No worries Jaypo, just try & stay positive & get on with the every day stuff etc for the time being.
I get so wound up about stuff sometimes that I have to say to myself "look Cazikins, you can't do anything about this, you don't have control over this & you have to believe & trust in others"
It doesn't usually work though but it is my mantra..... ;D ;D
Cazikins xx

;D
I'll go and meditate out in the torrential rain ;D
-
I'll be there with a warm towel and hot toddy ;)
-
I've decided there's no point worrying about things until they happen. I was convinced I had breast cancer and got so wound up worrying about it. Turned out it was a cyst. More likely than not yours will be nothing to worry about, perhaps it would be more surprising if there wasn't any scar tissue after your op. The waiting is awful especially if you have too much time to think about it.
You could try meditating in the rain instead, pneumonia will take your mind off it! Hope it goes well, I'm sure it will.
-
Thank you Sheila,never thought about it like that,re the pneumonia ;D
Got my 2nd vaccine on the Wednesday,gynaecologist on Thursday and mammography the the 3rd,isn't life fun :ola:

Is it worth asking for a biopsy?
-
I think that's what they will do,I'm sure it's the only way of knowing for sure,thank you x
-
Good luck for tomorrow Jaypo & I hope your jab didn't hurt too much today. :)
-

-
'said the actress to the ......... ' ;)
1 issue at a time?

Well,saw the gynaecologist (private but it was quicker that way) and a long story short,he reckons it is a scar from where my cervix was removed,or a cyst left behind where they've tweaked the skin when stitching,I said..are you 100% sure? He said....100% :) the bleed that I had and the uncomfortable sex is down to VA,he said keep taking the vagifem and keep having sex ;D he was wonderful,asked if I'd watched Davina and said he has been campaigning for years to have the vagifem patient info changed,said there are no risks at all and he even prescribes it to women who have had breast cancer,anyway,thank you ladies,for all your support,it is so appreciated

Thank you thank you,oh yes a glass of wine is heading my way,what a relief :spin:
-
V Good news jaypo. Cheers!
-
Thank you my lovely :banana:
-
:) Wonderful news! Now you can relax! My gynaecologist says the same and pronounced my lady bits are looking much, much better after doubling the vagifem dose!
-
I was told mine was nice and supple :o ;D
-
And he should know, hey Jay? 🤣😂 .....he made it out alive then.? 🤣😂
Brilliant news. Now get your sciatica sorted! 🤨
-
PHEW! :ola:
worth every penny, I never hesitate to pay for information.
-
Worth every penny indeed clkd,private Drs are never rushed like the poor NHS ones plus the quick appointment,which I needed for my mental state :(
Ha Jill,you're just jealous and yes,of course he should know,he was up to his elbows in there,I'm sure of it ;D
And as you can see by the time I'm writing this,my sciatica is killing me,couldn't get comfy in bed so got up at 4am!!!
-
So happy for you Jaypo what a relief. I agree about private doctors. I have paid into a policy all my life and never needed it till the last 2 years but my goodness how grateful I am to have private.Even without the policy I would still pay myself as the consultation fees are very reasonable for peace of mind.
-
I had twinges of sciatica yesterday >:(. So I walked around , luckily it eased. Until I got into bed ! Usually 2 Nurofen and a brisk walk relaxes the nerve.
-
Thank you Machair,yes, I agree,private is a different world,a real eye opener,we used to have a policy but stupidly cancelled it but for a half hour consultation,I was £200 but it was probably the best £200 I've ever spent.
Clkd, I thought mine was getting better yesterday evening but like you,when I went to bed,blimey the pain was unbearable, I can't take nurofen,makes me woozy,just been taking paracetamol and ibuprofen but that upsets my stomach too
-
Brilliant news, jaypo! Hope you have a lovely weekend xx
-
Thank you,you really are all so kind :bighug:
-
? is that woozy or more than normal woozy ? - usually 2 'nurofen' and exercise releases the nerve for me. It's about stretching the nerve. Sitting on the loo, laying down in bed, sitting in car have all been painful at various times >:(. Yesterday it was into my foot !
-
Hi Jaypo, checked in to see how you were doing - what great news!! Had a good feeling about it as I had a similar thing in 2016-18. So glad for you.

Aww thank you Iris xxx
