Hi everyone. I'm going out of my mind with worry. A couple of months ago I saw my GP with a niggle in my lower left abdomen and some issues with bowel movements. I've had all the tests, abdominal CT scan, colonoscopy, bloods, ultrasound and was diagnosed with diverticulosis. My urine tests are showing pus in my urine too but they don't know why. I spoke with my GP last Tuesday and he told me everything was ok. I then got a phone call on the Friday from the bowel nurse saying they'd seen an enlarged lymph node in my tummy walk and I needed to see the consultant this Friday. She said I'd be examined, have a chest CT scan and possibly a biopsy, but seemed quite vague. I'm terrified. I was told everything was ok and now it might not be. I'm very well in myself. I have lost a lot of weight recently and my appetite is terrible but I am currently going through a very difficult separation from my husband which has really affected me mentally and physically. I'm so worried. Why would I need a chest CT if it's a lymph node in my tummy wall? I've all kinds running through my mind, I can't eat or sleep at all and I'm barely hanging on. Anyone gone through this?
