Uterus Eyeglasses

Went to Makati Medical Center during lunch time for a follow-up check-up with my Ob-Gyne.

Showed up so I can be listed, have lunch of chicken arroz caldo and asado siopao at Dumplings 'n Dimsum, and back to my doctor's office.

And I thought it would just be normal as usual, but was advised that my uterine lining has thickened and have to do another ultrasound while on my 3rd-6th day of my menstrual cycle to ensure it is not cancer!  What?!

Back to the office, was looking for my progressive eyeglasses.  It's missing!  Must have left it at the taxi I took when I went to Makati Medical Center.

Is there more negative news?  Aside from the office.  Hay....

As soon as I arrived home, check my lab results.

The UTERUS is retroverted, midline, with heterogenous echopattern and irregular contour.  It measures 6.3 x 8.9 x 5.6 cm (corpus only).  There are at least 6 myomas seen.
The ENDOMETRIUM has a thickness of 0.66cm, is trilaminar, with intact subendometrial halo.
Impression:
Retroverted Uterus with Myoma Uteri as described.
Thick and Intact Endometrium for age.
Normal-sized Both Ovaries.

Now, my endometrium actually thinned from 0.78cm to 0.66cm.  Although, the impression is that it is thick for age.  Pray it is not cancer.
