discharge, vaginal walls dropped, scared stiff!!

hi.. i'm very worried and confused. For the past 10 months I have been losing a brown watery discarge nearly everyday. I still been having a period throughout this every 6-9 wks. About 3 months ago, I started getting swelling in my upper abdomin and it is tender to touch. 6 wks ago, I had a massive vaginal hemorrhage, it was totally unexpected and came out the blue!! I had a ultrasound afterwards which showed I still had a thick layer of the wall on my uterus and also lots of cysts on both ovaries. This came as a suprise because I have 3 children and I always thought with that many cysts, fertility could be a problem!! Anyway, after the hemorrhage, my abdomin remained swollen and quite hard and I still lose the discharge even though I take tranexamic acid, mefenamic acid and norethisterone tablets. Last week I had sexual intercourse and afterwards I bled quite heavily, it lasted a day. I had severe pain in pelvic area, back pain and upper abdomin. I went to see my doctor as I was also feeling very uncomfortable underneath and the pain was going into my bum cheeks. He examined me and said that the walls of my vagina had dropped down. He advised me to get plenty of rest and avoid standing and walking for long periods of time. He didn't do anything else I assume because I go to see the Gyneacologist on 8th June. The thing is now, since my 'bits' have dropped, the swelling in upper abdomin has also dropped to just above my belly button. it sore to press and still hard. The other thing concerning me is that i'm not losing brown discharge anymore since the vaginal walls have dropped, just a yellowy watery discharge. I havent a clue what any of this can be or what it can mean or why its happened. I'm only 33yrs old, normally very healthy!! My friends aunt has just been diagnosed with cancer, she had these symptoms. I don't think it could be that because my white blood cell count in my blood showed normal. That was 4 wks ago. I would very grateful if theres someone out there who can put my mind at rest and had this happen to them and found out it was something completely harmless. I'm so anxious all the time and I'm abseloutly scared stiff. I cant believe I have to wait till 8th June before someone sees me!! Any comments or anyone who has experienced a similar thing please share it with me.... I'm so scared!
Thank you x x x

hi again...
just one more question if anyone can help. Can ovarian cysts cause these problems I'm having?? I'm hoping this is a logical answer.

Hi, thanks for those comments, I appreciate you taking the time to read my post. I actually did go to see my doctor in July last year when i first started getting the discarge, he wanted to keep an eye on it and he referred me in November last year to Gyneacologist. I had an appointment in January but unfortunatly, the hospital had to cancel it due to unforseen circumstances and the next available is 8th June.
I'm from the UK and getting NHS treatment. I've actually been to see my doctor today as I'm finding the wait very tormenting and i'm making myself nuts. He also cant believe that the hospital are taking so long. He wants me to go back tomorrow to see him and a nurse for another examination and he said we would take it from there. I wrote before on the original post that the discarge had stopped, well..... it has started again.
I just so desperately want all this to be 'normal', I have this feeling i'm living in a bit of day dream though!!
thanks again x

I hate to say this, but it doesn't sound particularly good.  I'm surprised you waited several months to see someone and that was only after a medical emergency.

I suspect there is something else going on.  And you will know more after your gynae appointment.  There's really not much anyone over the internet can tell you.
