I have just had a phone call from my local hospital about my pelvic scan. They had a space for tomorrow so I naturally said yes! It's at 1.50 it is short notice and as it is also an internal scan :!: I quite understand if pocket dwellers are thin in number.

    Count me in but I'll stay in the coffee shop as I have a vile cold (and I daresay everyone else in there will be in the same boat). Good luck, I don't envy you! DD

    I'll join you Slosh, hope it goes well. A number of years ago I had a similar experience and it took me several hours to stop blushing- I had such a sheltered upbringing! :oops: .

    At least you don't have too long to wait and worry.

    Retrospective good wishes, Slosh. I hope all went well.

    Sorry for the late reply, I forgot to tick the notify me button! Lovely radiologist, and the best news is that my ovaries look just as they should do for my age with no cysts or growths. Very relieved.

    Hurrah! That is good news indeed so I hope they can sort out the mystery of the raised hormones. Many moons ago, and unbeknownst to me, I had a 3.8 kg cyst hanging off my right ovary (I thought I was fat). One night it twisted on its stem thus cutting off its blood supply: then I knew about it. :lol: DD

    Thanks DD, my GP has also referred me to Endochronology (not sure of spelling), as my blood test showed raised HCG levels. My daughter has Polycystic ovaries and has told me how painful they are when they burst.
    So I now have a physio appt (29/12), and a pain clinic one (26/1), just waiting on the endo one. Thank goodness (but not Jeremy Hunt!) for the NHS.

    I'm glad all is well on the ovarian front, Slosh. It's nice when we find some bit of us is functioning as it should.

    Good luck with the next two appointments and hear hear re J Hunt.

    Thanks Sticky, mind you as I'm post menopause they're not working anymore, in fact I felt quite sorry for them when they were described as "shrivelled" which was normal for my age. Shrivelled or not I'm glad they're not doing anything they shouldn't!

    I guess I qualify for the shrivelled club, then :lol:
