Hi my names Lauren just wondering if anyone has similar stories and what was the outcome for yourselves please!
I am 33 with two young children so I am petrified!
I’ve had a persistent cough for 4 months and swollen lymph nodes in both sides of my neck and breast, first my GP referred me as non Hodgkin’s is in my family and I have symptoms such as sweats, nausea, extreme fatigue, and loss of appetite! I was referred to ENT first who sent me for an ultrasound which looked normal and they referred me to heamatology/oncology but I wish they had done a biopsy and I wish I spoke up for myself but I was that scared and overwhelmed I froze in my appointment!
anyway I have just seen the haematologist and requested a scan so I have just had a CT scan and I’ve just had bloods done but I’ve got to wait until next week for my results so not long but still a painful wait!
but I’m confused because it’s pre booked as a telephone appointment but will they surely not ring me before if it’s bad news to tell me to come in?
i get my results on the 5th June this Wednesday I am counting down the days!
would they usually ring before that pre booked date if there was any concern although my results are only a week after my scan so hasent been to much of a wait!
I would appreciate anyone else’s comments because this time feels so lonely and so hard to speak to anyone! Thankyou
