Do I have cancer?

I have a doc appointment thursday, but I am hoping there will be a health care professional able to answer this. I have had a lot of issues in the past two years since my daughter was born. I did not have a period for over a year, then it came back on it's own after failed medication attempts. Had it for a few months and now it is fading. I bled when I should have been ovulating for one day lightly, then again for one light day when it should have come. Now my husband and I found a mass on the vaginal wall on the perenium side. It has started to come out of the opening...needless to say I am freaking out. I do have HPV and have had displasia for a while. Could this be cervical cancer that has spread? I have a family history of cervical pre-cancer and a death from ovarian cancer.

maybe this can help.
Reply:I do not know but I sure hope the best for you. Hang in there, hon, I know you are terrified. God be with you.
Reply:I can imagine how anxious and fearful you must be. It would be wrong for anybody here to try to answer your question because we couldn't possibly know any better than you can guess, given this medical history.





My husband turned yellow a few years ago. His father had died from Liver and Pancreatic Cancer at the age of just 56, years before. When we saw that jaundice, we just knew that this was history repeating. We rushed him to our family doctor on Friday, who confirmed the jaundice, meaning obviously there was something going on concerning the liver. She sent him to the hospital for some tests, and we had to wait from Friday till Monday for the results of those tests. It was the most painful weekend of our lives, waiting. You can imagine all the things that we were talking about.





There wasn't a doubt in our minds that this could be absolutely nothing else but cancer, just like his daddy. I'll bet nobody on the planet was ever so happy to hear the doctor say the next Monday "He's just got regular old Hepatitis B." He's alive and well, five years later, and rambunctious as ever.





So I guess what I am saying is no matter what you might suspect it could be, don't jump the gun yourself, and nobody here should either. Wait for the doctor visit, and the test results. And even then, there are treatments and cures for things these days that weren't available when some of our older generation family members may have had the same thing.
