  • I'm being told by the hospital that the MDT will hopefully discuss my case on Friday, and that they have results back from biopsies, CT and MRI.

    So I guess I should be having discussions soon about the exact diagnosis and treatment plan? Does that sound right?

    I'm so scared it will be bad news and/or very complex and that it has spread.

  • Morning yeah they have they're meeting and then you will go in to see the plan , through the last 6 months that was the worst time for me I had panic attacks that I'd never experienced before , its the not knowing , once you've had the meeting you will know the plan then focus on getting on with it , you can only try to think the best which I know is hard ! Sending love hope all goes ok xx
