I just had a biopsy done to check to see if I have endometrial cancer. I waas having some abnormal bleeding that lasted for about 12 days. When it finally lightened up I phoned my gyns. office and they got me in that same day.  She said it could be hormones or pre-meno stuff, but also needed to take a biopsy of the uteras to check. Now I am feeling nervous and shaky all over again. It's not so much about me. Just don't want to put my family through this again.

Please pray for NO cancer. I can deal with whatever comes my way, but gosh, not again!

Thanks so much,

Lexi

    Sending prayers your way. As someone who has had four endometrial biopsy's -- all fine -- for "abnormal" bleeding, I know the fear of waiting. I'm betting premenopause. Prayers and hugs for you!

    Oh, thank you so much! I do appreciate your prayers and well wishes so very much.

    I should hopefully hear something on Monday. The waiting is terrible! I am having aches in my back now(which I kinda always have, thanks breast cancer), but now I am noticing it more.

    Rachel, thank you for the encouragement. I am sorry that you have had to go through many biopsies, but thankful they have been benign.

    I'll definitley let you girls know when I hear results.

    Lexi, for sure you will be in my prayers.  If it makes you feel any better, my sister just went through a very similar scenario.  She is perimenopausal and had irregular bleeding as well.  They did a uterine biopsy and it came back all clear.  I think the irregular stuff is pretty normal just before you hit menopause.  I know I was getting to that stage when I was dx w/the bc and I never had another period after that.  I think the stress and shock of it all did me in.  Can't say I miss it much!  

    Keep us posted!
    Love,
    Sharon

    Oh Lexi, I hope it's only a scare and nothing more.  Thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Checking in to say I received the good news today that my biopsy came back clear! Yippee thank you Lord! I had to e-mail my gyn this am because I hadn't heard anything. They just don't get it unless they have been diagnosed with cancer. Geesh!

    Thank you again for the prayers and well wishes. They do my heart good!

    Lexi, I just saw this thread and wanted to say, THANK GOODNESS! Before BC I always told myself, my body isn't mechanical...it functions as a natural organism with it's own rythyms that are affected by many things, even the moon. As long as something was a single occurance and/or didn't last more than two weeks, I didn't worry. That advice is harder to follow now, but I still try.

    I'm glad it seems to be just one of those natural things.
