I've previously posted on here about some things going on. My anxiety levels are sky high and I'm really struggling to keep a level head!
I've been having brown stringy discharge now for about 4 weeks. Not much, only there when I wipe. Turned a bit red about 2 weeks ago, but not a normal period at all, although was the right time according to my calendar. Stopped for a couple of days but now come back.
I went to GP last week. She said it was just old blood. She looked at my cervix and said there was some brown discharge but it looked fine. She tried to have a feel inside but because I'm overweight she said it was pointless. Told me to come back in 2 months if still carrying on.
My health anxiety is kicking in big time. I've convinced myself I have some sort of cancer, at the minute ovarian as she couldn't feel properly. And every day I'm leaving it is taking me one day nearer an early death. My health anxiety is that bad I'm convinced something bad is going to happen. My GP knows I'm like this so a bit annoyed that I have to wait 2 months before she'll look again. I've been googling brown discharge and it's just fuelling my anxiety more.
When I'm more rational I think logically and I'm sure I'm perimenopausal (GP 's not convinced). My husband is convinced it's hormonal. But when I'm like this there's no convincing me.....
Is brown discharge normal for this long?
Thank you to all you lovely ladies, you're all such a big help!
