Desperate need for info

Wow, this has to be the worst day of my life.

my 56 yr old husband went for an endoscopy yesterday, took loads of biopsy’s as the felt there was something amiss in an area of about 2cm.  Totally floored by this. We get a call this morning for him to go for a ct scan this evening. He has just been and it took about 10 mins. No contrast.

i am seriously freaking out- we both assumed it was a ‘bit of gord’ Or at worst an ulcer or 2.

this has totally floored us

Any info good or more likely bad, would be good

  • Hello Hilts, 

    I just wanted to welcome you to our forum. I hope you won't have to wait too long for your husband's CT scan results. I can imagine it must be a very stressful time for you while waiting for these important results. 

    I know it is really hard but try not to worry too much or anticipate what it might be as unfortunately it's not possible to know yet what it might be until you get all the results from all the scans he had and only a specialist will be able to interpret these and tell you more. The best thing to do to avoid thinking too much about this while waiting is to keep busy and distracted if you can and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. 

    I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through all this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

    Best wishes,
