Hi all,

I recently contacted my GP due to ongoing abdominal pain, thinking it was gut related. I was referred to a gut specialist who thought it might be diverticulitis. So off I went for a CT scan which showed a 4cm mesenteric mass in the top of my abdomen with enlarged lymph nodes and possible lymphoma. 
I’ve now had blood tests (awaiting results) and going for a PET-CT scan tomorrow. All in all it’s been 3 weeks since my appointment with gut specialist so it’s been a bit of a whirlwind. 
I know that until I have scan results and biopsy results can’t really do much more than carry out my own research and educate myself but preparing myself for worse mentally. 
If anyone else in a similar position, happy to connect and share stories.
