Thank you for the reply,

I hope your mum got a positive outcome?

Work know what’s going on but the job makes you see what might happen. Had a young terminal patient come in on my last shifts. It was the family they were so distraught. I had to go and have a cry in my office.

I am taking a sick day for my results on Thursday and my immediate boss let me know if I had three episodes of sickness in 6 months I would be performance managed! She asked Did I really need a sick day for a clinic appointment when I might need it for treatment! That didn’t help my stress levels at all.

my husband is going along the line that we’ll go on Thursday and be told it’s all fine and life can continue as normal. It will be huge shock to him if not.

I have my suspicions, the radiologist told me exactly what she thought and what she was looking for. She showed me some professional curtesy, I cannot fault her.

anyway thanks for reaching out, it meant a lot xx

Hi, 

Just wanted to pop by and say i hope the results are good when you get them. I am a nurse also (used to work in critical care) and i think knowing too much can be our downfall at times and make anxiety worse as we know the worst that can happen. I am the same at the moment waiting for results of ct scan and blood tests as they are hoping to rule out lymphoma for me. Its a horrible situation to be in. Sending positive vibes to us all xx 

Hi

thanks for the reply.

how funny I’m an ex critical care nurse as well!

I’ve received a letter this morning asking me to see a Dr to discuss some results. Can’t get an appointment till Tuesday so more waiting.

wishing you the very best
