Hello and thanks for your post

I'm sorry you are worried about your dad's health.

When doctors mention the possibility of cancer they often order blood and other tests to find out what might be the matter. It's important to remember that the symptoms your dad is experiencing can be caused by many different conditions, not just cancer.

Generally routine blood tests can take a few days to come back.

Easier said than done, but try not to worry too much. Your dad's GP will advise on what the next steps are when the test results are known.

I know waiting when you are worried is stressful, but hopefully you'll know more soon. Give us a ring if you want to talk any of this over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Kind regards,

Celene

Thank you for the reply Celene he’s had his bloods taking today and just got his appointment for his scan which is on Sunday which is really quick we not sure if that’s a good sign or a bad sign
