Good morning all 

So my awful journey has now been going on for 8weeks 

Short version , found lump on my right shoulder/back )bra strap area I'd say ..

Went to Dr's got referred for ultra sound and bloods ,

Bloods come back fine just low vitamin D 

2 x ultra sounds done . Told will need mri as it's complex they don't know what it is but the vascular concerns them 

Lump is roughly 2cm 

Week or so later mri done and again no answers other then I need be referred to specialist team...

So after ultrasounds ,bloods,mri all which happened within 3weeks I'd say im now being told they still don't know but its a soft tissue lump within the fat/muscle with vascularity..

Refferal letter says suspected cancer to the sorcuma team .

Doctor (my gp) says not to read into that as they have reffer under suspected to get seen on the 2week act (his obs trying not to freak me out ) BUT he tells me they still can't say what it is hence Refferal and probably a biopsy??

Soooo anyways im now under the specialist team and they have told me the 2week referral doesn't work like that there this is at a hospital and its all done on criteria and have given me an appointment 4weeks after the letter of Refferal!! So my appointment is the 19th August, receptionist said its the date she was asked to book me in by the specialist (as I asked don't they have anything sooner) she said he based on critia I told her this has been going on now for while surley if its suspected cancer I should be seen sooner ? Then to be told the chances of them doing biopsy on first appointment could happen BUT unlikely its more meet and examination then decide on next step ! I'm like what the hell!!! Suspected cancer and this I'd the slowest process yet ...

I'm just broken arm 8 weeks of worrying isn't good for my body or my family I feel the stress is making more symptoms which then makes me worry more ...;-( 

Is this normal to make you wait ???
