New to this & scared

Hi, I’ve had a pain in my upper abdomen when I eat for the last few weeks pain gets really intense and I’ll regurgitate the food. I went to the doctor regarding this and also explain that I’ve lost 2 1/2 stone in the last three months. I was sent to have the camera put down to look at my tummy and then referred for an urgent CT scan. I had this last week and have now received a letter saying I I have an appointment with ufology and MDT. This was Dr Google and read about bladder cancer. This was very scary. I’ve got my appointment next Thursday in the afternoon I’m not sleeping or eating and I’m obviously very worried. I don’t understand why I get a pain in my gut if I have cancer in the bladder if anyone knows can you please let tell me. Thanks for reading this.

  • I am so sorry I meant I went onto Google to see if I could learn something and noe I am terrified 

  • Hi Dolly 

    Dr Google is not your friend, it cannot possibly know anything about you or your condition and it will just scare you. 

    Just because you have been referred to Urology doesn't mean you have cancer. It could be a number of things,, a MDT just means that whatever you have needs to be treated.

    Try to stay away from Google and don't second guess what the urology appointed is about, I know it's hard but you're not doing yourself any favours by speculating. 

  • Hi I understand your worry when it comes to problems with our health its natural and everyone worries especially when waiting for an appointment to see what happens next ,I don't know why or how the pain in your stomach is causing concern about your bladder but obviously the experts know and that's why the MDT ( A group of medical experts in different fields ) get together to come up with the best possible treatment plan for you ,on the other hand just because you've read it could be cancer does not mean it is and even if it turns out to be you will be treated with the best available treatment for you .
