Hi Ajx 

I just wanted to wish you the best of luck for your appointment next week! It's good that they are being thorough even though it is a really stressful time for you. Being referred means that you will definitely get answers and a diagnosis and treatment to relieve these symptoms. 

It's completely normal in your situation to be worried about the worst possible outcome but it's worth bearing in mind that there are so many other conditions that could explain your symptoms. I know it's really hard but try not to google anything if you can avoid it as this will only make you feel more confused and never provides accurate answers. It won't be long now until you find out more but in the meantime I wanted to share with you our helpful tips to help you cope while waiting for important news. 

I hope that you will hear from other members of our forum who have been in a similar place before and that they will pop by and share their experiences with you. 

I am keeping everything crossed for you that it all turns out to be nothing of concern. 

Best wishes,
