Hi I had a dodgy looking mole on my back doc noticed when I had chest inf ,had it cut out tested result cancer , next a bigger area cut out wle feeling scared got 6 week for results
I am sorry you are in this period of uncertainty while you wait for results.
It can be incredibly difficult not knowing what may or may not happen next and when. Do try and keep yourself as occupied as possible to try and ride this time out.
MIND, the mental health charity, has some good advice on how to cope withperiods of anxiety.
Take care, and if you want to talk things out with the nurses the number is 0808 800 4040. Lines are open mon-fri, 9-5.
I’m in a similar situation to you - with a BCC tumour behind my ear. My flow up was lost and I only got my positive cancer result 7 months after testing. So like you I’ve got to go back and have more skin removed and a second BCC tumour that has appeared in the meantime. I don’t have any other experiences to share other than you’re not alone and I’ve found the cancer research skin cancer pages really reassuring whilst I am in this period of uncertainty. Good luck and best wishes :)
