It’s a waiting game

I’m currently awaiting results of bone marrow biopsy.  I’ve had MRI and X-rays, all pointing towards bone marrow cancer.  Scary times

  • Hello smilinglady, 

    This waiting game is certainly no fun game and I hope that you won't have to wait too long for results of your bone marrow biopsy. It's good that they are being thorough in their investigations and I hope that you won't have to wait too long for a diagnosis. It's normal to become a bit restless and anxious while waiting for results, or to feel like googling for answers frenetically but this as we all know (because we've all done it!) will only make the anxiety worse. We have helpful tips to help you cope during this long time of waiting and uncertainty and I hope that you will find these coping strategies useful.  

    I am keeping fingers, toes, everything crossed for you and keep us updated if you don't mind as we'll be thinking of you in the coming days. I will now let our loving community come and say hello and shower you with messages of support. 

    Best wishes,
