Dads Diagnosis - stuck in limbo!

Good Morning,

 

Last week my dad went into hospital with abdominal pain, He had a scan to which Doctors told him he has cancer in his kidneys, lungs and liver. He is now back home with pain management but we have not been told stages or anything else! He has to wait for a biopsy which hopfully is going to be next week. 
Is this normal? We just feel lost and stuck with no answers?

  • Hi 

    it's totally normal to feel like that .   You want to get the testing and results done yesterday .   The waiting for results is the worst  so try and have some fun .  It's hard I know but think of it as no need is good news .   I was a career for both my parents first experience was terrible with my mum but luckily different with my dad .    Contact your dads gp , see if you can speak to someone who is dealing with it and chase up your appointment.

    hope your dad will be seen as soon as and wishing him good health 
     

  • Hi,

    its a nightmare playing the waiting game.

    My dad had a biopsy for a lump that appeared in his mouth. We had to wait nearly 4 weeks for the cancer result. They'll inform you as soon as they find out.
