My husband went for a chest x ray last Monday and was told to make an appointment at the doctors for 10 days time. 2 hours after the x ray, wed got a call from the doctors asking him to go in the next day.
The doctor said the x ray showed an abnormal gray mass and a CT scan appointment was made. He also referred him to a specialist. The doctor did use the word cancer, said that it didn't look good and referred him for the above, and said to go down the cancer route .
Sunday is the CT scan and next Thursday is thed specialist. He's emotionally up and down but he had a shadow on his lung 4 years ago that a GO wasn't worried about, we just can't remember which lung. Is a 'grey mass' different to a 'shadow'? How do you cope with the waiting and the what It's? Thank you.
