  • Hi Scorpiokat5,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry to read about your worries and what you're going through at the moment. It's perfectly natural to be worried and any uncertainty and waiting for more information is always difficult.

    The main thing is that you have an appointment to deal with it. If you have questions/worries, make sure you note them down and ask your doctor during the appointment.

    I hope you don't have long to wait for the appointment and in the meantime try to keep busy and to distract yourself from thinking or worrying about it too much. I know this isn't easy though.

    Do feel free to let us know how you get on, if you would like to of course.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
