  • I'm sorry to hear about the reactive lymph nodes that were found during your PET scan Tracy1987 and for the worry this is understandably causing.

    Coping with the wait for news is always difficult but our members are here for you Tracy, and I'm sure some of them will stop by soon to offer their thoughts and advice.

    If it would help to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses you can give them a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. Our nurses will do all they can to answer your questions and ease your mind whilst you wait.

    We're sending you all our support Tracy and wishing you all the best for Monday. We'll have our fingers crossed for a good outcome.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
