Biopsy done. Urgent suspected cancer.

Hi. 

I don't know where to start. Lol

I had shoulder surgery in July. The pain meds caused me to have seizures and I fell and hit my head causing brain contusions. Week on hospital. That was at the start of October 

Had a biopsy done in September. Had the thing for about 2 years but always had other priorities when speaking to the doctor.i fell though the cracks as I was in hospital. Finally when I was out gp told me I had an urgent referral. I rang them and it was booked for tomorrow now. 

With the headaches, the brain injury, cysts on my liver, shoulder (relearn how to use that arm) 2 slipped discs in my back, buggered knee and now cancer. My GP told me to expect the worst. 

I don't know what to feel or do. I keep laughing as this must be a joke right. How can all this happen to me within 5 months. 

  • Welcome to the forum Ashg88 although I'm incredibly sorry to hear about everything that has happened to you within the last 5 months. It must be very difficult to get your head around.

    I was just reading through your post and noticed you had your biopsy the other day. How did you get on? 

    I hope our guide on how to cope with waiting for news will help to steady your nerves whilst you wait for your results but hopefully you will receive some support from our members soon as well.
