Hi Mary39,
Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm very sorry to hear of your situation and I can of course understand this must be a worrying time.
It sounds like you're waiting to hear more about your diagnosis - hopefully it won't be too much longer to wait for that as I'm sure the uncertainty is only making things more difficult. When you hear more, you should also get an idea of any next steps involved, which should help in terms of providing some expectation and understanding of what's next.
At any point do discuss any concerns or questions you have with your doctor as necessary.
Try to take things one day at a time and keep looking after yourself. We're always here for support if you need it.
Wishing you all the best,
