Newly diagnosed
With endo adenocarcinoma, grade 1. Super frustrated that I have to wait 4 weeks after being diagnosed for my first gyn onc appt. Asked primary gyn and gyn onc if they recommended an MRI in the meantime, both said no, just wait for exam by onc. I have requested a second referral.
Last pap was normal, ovaries on US appeared normal as well. Recent CT scan for chest pain revealed pulmonary embolism, as well as an enlarged lymph node in lung and nodules in several organs.
I feel an MRI is justified, but I’m annoyed that nobody’s recommending one. Kind of feeling in the dark with so little info. It’s like they dropped a bomb and just walked away.
Just trying to get through each day without losing my mind. Needed to vent. Grateful for this sub
