My stepdad has been diagnosed first with probaly mesathlioma, then they said he has (over phone) mestastic cancer, lining of lung, on 4 ribs. It's so confusing and stressful, my mom and I are devastated and he's not even seen a oncologist yet on NHS.
Luckily he is on bupa at his job, but needed a diagnosis off oncologist before he could go on to Bupa. After waiting since January he finally called bupa and they ok treatment to start.
Hopefully he will see private oncologist next week..but I don't understand why he has been sent gp letter saying this and its says "pending ihc". What does it all mean?
