Driving myself mad, haematology results tomorrow.

I think i am just after support these last 6 weeks waiting for results ends tomorrow and if i am honest i just want to cry. 

Im under investigation for lymphoma have loads of symptoms and found a lump a few days ago that i will tell them about tomorrow. I feel soooo anxious and stressed right now.

Work has been a good distraction until today where i dnt know if im just being sensative or the customers are being horrible.

  • Glad you got good results, I didn't get anything from my appointment today, despite my CT scan being over a month ago, the report still hadn't been done. So I'm none the wiser. Worked myself up all weekend, bursting into tears randomly and didn't sleep at all last night. Just wanted to have some kind of result. 

    Gutted... I even rang the hospital where I had my scan, after my haemotology appointment to see what's going on and they said the report hasn't been done yet as they've got a backlog of work... ..

     

  • Aww man sorry to hear this, that is rubbish. 

    I am relieved to some degree however now im back to square one and still feel rubbish :/ 

    I think it is just the story of my life at the moment, 80% of tests come back normal and some come back abnormal so i know and feel something is going on but no one can figure out why.

    I hope you get answers soon!! and let us know :) 

  • Hi hun!

    I am in the exact same position as I also get my results tomorrow!... 

    It is hard, but like Purrfect said - 9/10 people don't have cancer even though they are tested, this gave me some hope and I hope it does you also. 

    Will be thinking of you, and will have everything crossed for you, please update tomorrow with results. And good luck.

    Keep busy and then try and get some rest as hard as it is.

    Warmest thoughts.

  • Sorry! I completely got the date wrong!! I'm so glad your results came back as not Cancer, I can imagine your feeling frustrated but atleast now you know what it isn't, so you can get sorted.

    Thinking of you.

  • Thank you. 

    Good luck for tomorrow hope you get good news !! 

  • Hi sammyg, 

    Are you still getting fevers? Have you had any answers? 

  • Yep still getting fevers, feeling fatigued, breathless sct but not really any closer to answers. Had an auto immune lot of bloods done but they have come back normal. My gp are reluctant to do anymore testing at this point aswell as ive been cleared by haematology, but am currently still under respatory and gastrology. They are thinking that the signs of inflammation are gastro related at this point but my lung function test today showed that my airways are inflammed but i dont have asthma as my lungs are mechnically doing great so just more qyestions really.

    How are you doing ? 

  • Hi Sammyg, 

    I keep getting fevers too. I seem to go a day or two without them then it goes back up. Its awful, I feel so hot, sweaty and nauseous when its up. Can I ask how often you are getting fevers and how high they go? Mine are low grade, usually around 37.8 but its enough to keep me awake at night sweating. I see every hour! I suffer health anxiety which doesnt help as I cant help but trail the internet looking for answers. Everything I read is negative about having fevers! How are you coping? 

  • Yeah mine are low grade also going up to 38.4 at most happens a few times a week and i get night sweats aswell, im constantly researhing my symptoms but im just going round in cirles at the moment. One gp has suggested that its medically unexplained physical symptoms and has suggested going to speak to someone despite my anxiety having been under control for a while now and i dont have health anxiety as such being a nurse. 

  • It must be so frustrating not getting an answer! Can i ask what tests you have had done, have you had scans? I went to the doctor this morning. She wants me to go in tomorrow to get more blood tests done and then leave it 2 weeks to see if I am still get the temperatures, if I am she will send me for tests
