  • Hello Crankyme

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been having some investigations for bladder cancer. We know that this period of waiting for tests and results can be really difficult and it's unfortunate that your results are not back yet. 

    As it's another couple of weeks before your appointment I'd suggest speaking to your GP about your nausea. It's not uncommon for anxiety to cause this and I'm sure the GP would be able to recommend something to help you over the next few weeks. 

    You might also find it helpful to talk things through with one of our nurses. I'm sure they will be able to offer some advice and support ahead of your results. If you'd like to chat to them they are available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Do keep in touch and let us know how you get on with your next appointment. 

    Best wishes, 
    Jenn
