Hello Nightthinking and thanks for your post,

I am sorry to hear about your situation. Without being involved in your care and not knowing where your tumour is it is difficult to comment on the waiting time between your different tests. It is probably unlikely to make much difference.

It does take time to get all the different tests organised and often further tests are needed to get more information about a particular cancer as the doctors can work out how best to treat it.

We have some information about having a pet-ct.

I would talk through your concerns with the consultant when you see them.

I do hope that you know more soon. If you have a specialist nurse do also discuss this with them.

If you would like to talk any of this through with one of the nurses on the helpline then you are welcome to give us a ring.

Our number is freephone 0808 800 4040 and the nurses are here Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm.

All the best,

Catherine
