Waiting on results

Hi I had a hysteroscopy done 3 weeks ago and received a letter saying that I have to have another under general anithstetic.

I called the hospital to see when this would  be but they said they are on standby for this carona virus. I am worried about how long I will have to wait as I just want some answers. I am in my late 50's . Do you think waiting will effect my out come? This waiting is driving me mad as I am on my own and don't like to talk to my young daughters about it. Thanks

  • Hello Cave, 

    A warm welcome to Cancer Chat. Those are certainly really difficult times when there is so much unpredictability about everything but hopefully you won't have too wait too long to find out when your treatment will be taking place. It's so hard at the moment to get any answers on anything and we are sadly having to live one day at a time which can be so difficult especially for those who are waiting to have medical procedures like yourself. The only thing really that you can do at the moment while waiting to find out when your hysteroscopy will take place is to keep busy and active and focused on things you enjoy doing, for example watching a good book or series. This is of course easier said than done and I hope that you will hear from others on our forum who find themselves in a similar situation at the moment. 

    Fingers crossed for you that you get to have an indication soon as to when your appointment is going to be. 

    Best wishes,
