    A warm welcome to the forum Marie although I'm sorry you're feeling so nervous about your upcoming scan.

    Waiting for tests (and results) can be very challenging but our community are here for you and hopefully some of them will stop by soon to offer their support and advice.

    I hope these tips will help keep your anxiety at bay but if you feel like you're really struggling, do think about reaching out to your GP for help and advice.

    We're thinking of you Marie and will have our fingers crossed for a good outcome.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator

    Hi Steph

    Thanks for your kind reply. I'll look at the tips.

    At the moment I'm physically and emotionally exhausted, and I'm going to try and speak my gp today.

    Kind regards 

    Marie

    Hi Steph

    My MRI results came back. The main duct in my pancreas (which is dilated to 6mm), is the same size it was in November. No stones either, it's great news and I'm relieved. 

    Kind regards 

    Marie

    Hi marie

    Can I friend request you?

    I have just had my 6 month mrcp scan..

    It'd be good to talk to someone in a similar situation.
