Is my partner lying about possible cancer?

Hello, I'll try and keep this short. 

I have identified a lot of red flags in the below story, but it would be great to have someone else's opinion on this.

I told my husband I wanted to leave him yesterday, lots of arguing followed and then he told me he had been to A&E that day and has been told he might have cancer. To be fair to him, he has had some symptoms of anal cancer but has been refusing to go to his gp. Now all of a sudden he has taken himself off to the emergency department and within 2 hours has given a stool sample, had a biopsy, blood tests and had a camera in his anus to look at his issue. This just seems like a lot to me in a very short space of time. He said they would email him the results in 2 weeks.

I asked why he didn't take anyone with him, why he didn't call while he was there, why it took 6 hours to tel me etc.

Can someone please clarify if any of the above sounds believable?

Thanks

    I am sorry to hear about the situation you are in.

    It is impossible for anyone here to know what is going on with your husband and I think you need to sit down together to have a honest and open conversation.

    As other people have commented on the thread it is highly unlikely for anyone to have the tests listed on the same day by just turning up to a accident and emergency department.

    Best wishes
