I think it is the fact that I only had the scan yesterday and he phoned today with results. The fibroid is on my right side, but doctor says the problem lies on the left. Hence not knowing whether it is from the bowel or the ovary. I should never have googled bulky ovary as the C word is so prominent. I dont know either, why the pictures from the scan were not clear but, the last time I had a transvaginal scan (a good few years ago and something to do with my haywire periods whilst not knowing if it was a menopausal issue, I remember being told that I had a fibroid but they couldnt see anything else very clearly as I was full of gas!! Doctor thinks its not the bladder but something else causing pressure on the bladder and today my stomach is ridiculously gurgly. Definately pressure though, as I feel it into my pubic area and top of inner thigh. Hopefully the CT scan is done soon so I can get an answer one way or another. Health anxiety doesnt help with things like this.
They probably phoned straight away because the scan was suboptimal, meaning it was faulty and needed doing again.
Bulky ovaries are also caused by cysts and would give the symptons you have been suffering. Stop doing Dr Google, everything leads to cancer on there! If you googled ingrowing toenail it would eventually turn into cancer!
I'm just as bad, you look at google for reassurance but it always does the opposite. My doctor told me never to look on google and leave it to the experts.
Of course it would have helped if the scan had been done properly in the first place but we all have bad days.
My stomach gurgles when I'm scared too and then I get heartburn, it's your anxiety.
Try and not think the worse, whatever it is they're on to it now.
When you hear the sound of stampeding hoofs, think horses not zebras...
