My husband had his lung medistinal lymph node biopsy yesterday. To say we're stressed & completely terrified of results is an understatement.
Every ache pain twinge hes getting his thinking its cancer.
He suffered a stroke 7 yrs ago & been prone to swelling in ankles legs & hands. But this seems to have worsened over the last 2 mths. He as arthritis in is joints that pain as worsesed. Eveeything single thing he thinks its cancer.
Since he had the biopsy hes leg are like lead weights, I think from seddaton, but he says he heard the docs talking & I think he was at an angle on bed having the EBUS which as made his back/body ache, he seems stiff with pain.
Thought of another 2 wk wait is unbearable & what about if things are going on in his body? Though he doesnt cough, never bought up blood No weighltoss, tho I wud imagine we've both lost weight now!
Its a daily living nightmare....as anybody else gone thru this & come out not so bad? 5cms lower lung with small volume medistinal lymph node.
I dont know how much more we can bare....
