Hi my dad recently had difficulty swallowing so went for an endoscopy where they found 2 1cm x 1cm lesions which apparently look like scars on the oesophagus. they took biopsy results which he originally thought they told him would be back within 5 working days, his GP also said to expect this.
after claryifying with his nurse she said they need to now wait until he’s had a CT scan before he can be given any results. I’m terrified they know the result of the biopsy is bad and are now needing to check how far it’s spread which is why they want to wait for both results before giving him the bad news to avoid him asking too many unanswerable questions.
im scared stiff, unable to eat or do anything. Just don’t know what to do. I’m terrified of losing him.
has anyone got any experience of finding out results of a biopsy or experience of this scaring (or as they called it lesions) being found. I know it’s bad to google but I’m finding so little advice online I’m without any idea at all as to what is happening.
thanks
