CT Scan needle biopsy

In the last 6 weeks I've had an x-ray, ct scan, pet scan and now a Bronchoscopy, it's only been a week since the Bronchoscopy, I know that there has to be a MDT meeting. But I'm scared. Luckily my Dr has prescribed both mirtazapine (evening)

 The 6 week ct scan has shown the need for a ct guided biopsy, I'm sure it's a lung infection, however I am  scared it's more 

  • Hi Al4384 and welcome to the forum.

    Waiting for tests and results can be very scary, especially when our minds tend to think the worst, but if you can try to stay calm and not jump to any conclusions until you know more. Much easier said than done I know, but I hope you can take some strength, and comfort, from knowing that many of our members have been in a similar situation so you are not alone and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from them soon.

    If you feel it may help to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, you can do so on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all they can to answer your questions and put your mind at ease whilst you wait.

    We're thinking of you Al4383 and wishing you all the best with your CT guided biopsy when the time comes.

    Kind regards,
