I am 50 yrs old and 2 1/2 yrs post menepausal
I am 50 yrs old and 2 1/2 yrs post menopausal. I went in for a regular obgyn check up the doctor ordered a US for adexal fullness. I have no symtoms of pain or discomfort. I had the US and was diagnosed with a thick uterus lining at 5.4 cm along with a 1.9 fibroid. I'm scheduled tomorrow for a biopsy and I'm not so sure I know what to make of any of this. My mammogram was ok, but my mother and my oldest sister passed away within 3 months of each other from breast cancer. My father passed away of cancer also. Trying to remain hopeful and calm but sometimes it's overwhelmingly difficult. What should I make of this?
I went for the the biopsy, got chicken and decided to get a D & C on 11/04/2010, the biopsy will be done then. We'll see...
I just read your post. How did the biopsy go and did you get the results back yet? Best wishes.
I get that. My concern is not the fibroids as much as being post menopasul with a thich uterus lining of 5.4cm.
Fibroids are not cancer. Take your doctor's advice on this, and talk to him about your cancer worries. He should be able to reassure you.
