My husband was told he had Terminal Cancer in his Kidney and lungs and a week later they also told us it was in his spine and ribs following a scan. Several days later the Biopsy came back and we have been told it is Inconclusive and he now needs another Biospy in his lungs ( Kidneys were done first time around).They are now telling us he may not have Cancer at all. We have already had almost 3 weeks of hell. Waiting for the second Biopsy still, with probably another 10 days or so wait for the result. I dont know how they can tell you you have Terminal Cancer, and then go back on themselves. We are absolutely beside ourselves, and still dont know what we are facing. 

Hi Squirtypie,

A very warm welcome to our forum, although I'm sorry to hear why you've joined us. It can sometimes be difficult to diagnose certain cancers and other conditions can mimic cancer symptoms at times. I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 11 years. Although I have been unfortunate to get a cancer diagnosis on both occasions, my consultant was almost certain that I had it one another 4 occasions and told me this each time at my first appointment.

It certainly does make the waiting terrifying when this happens, But I felt so blessed on those 4 occasions to get a clear biopsy result. I sincerely hope that this latest suggestion is the correct one for your husband and that it won't turn out to be cancer in the end.

Please keep in touch and let us know how he gets on. We are always here for both of you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
