I empathise with you - waiting is the worst.  My journey is a lot shorter but I did have a telephone consultation regarding my problem and was advised that next time he would see me face to face - still waiting for a diagnosis so perhaps that's just the way the system works,  I've had four different tests but am still waiting for the results of three of them.  I have been advised that the results have come through and the delay in advising me is caused by the consultant's admin backlog.  A bit frustrating knowing that my anxiety is prolonged by timing of staff rotas but has taught me that you can't second guess outcome based on method of delivery and that delays are just that ....   Wishing you all the best xx 

Hi, 

how did the phone call go regarding your CT results? I hope that you now have some answers. The anxiety when waiting is something I had no idea would be so overwhelming. Although I feel physically well, mentally I feel like I've been in a bubble for the last 8/9 weeks. I am still at the diagnosis stage and while there is still hope that my mass is benign and that I will "just" need major surgery to remove it, it is the not knowing that is the hard bit. Whatever it is, we will deal with together - it's just when will know what "it" is?

Take care

Sharon
