After going to A & E with suspected gall bladder stones, I had multiple scans and a 4cm lump in my kidney was diagnosed.
The surgeons/Dr's to the nurses all told me different things.. Its a lump/mass/tumour.
My gp called and apologised for misdiagnosis. I wasn't at all angry and ended up consoling my GP.
After a full week I have heard nothing so decided to call the hospital. To be honest quite a rude receptionist said the mdt went ahead. She said that I should have heard that day. Nothing so called again today and she told me I need to be more patient. I appreciate she probably has everyone else doing the same. Before I even had the chance to ask and tell her why I'm calling she put the phone down after telling me to be more patient.
I'm out of my mind with worry as there is history of cancer like this in females in my family.
I'm in the middle of organising a house move. In the last couple of days I've passed further kidney stones so been very uncomfortable along with the worry about this lump.
I have so many questions and a fretful gp doesn't help. I like her though so don't really want to change my Dr.
To make things worse, whilst he is my absolute world and support, my other half has epilepsy that can be triggered by stress. With the house move and me I'm really concerned about him.
That's why I'm really concerned to know when my appointment may be. Especially after all the concerns from the hospital whilst I was at A&E.
I'm 30 so appreciate its not something that is normally diagnosed at this age...
Feels good to write it down. Thanks for reading.
