Feel like I’m on a merry go round...

Hi, I'm not really looking for anything in particular except maybe a listening ear? I am so very frustrated and now very scared that something treatable has now possibly been left too late. Long story short.. lots of gynae, bowel, breast issues over last 18 months...had number of tests, some invasive some not. Found issues, some I agree with some I haven't but I've had to accept, as I felt like I was getting on the doctors nerves, hinted I was being a bit dramatic with symptoms... I can honestly say I have never exaggerated on my health issues, in fact, regrettably now, played them down. Out of every test I've had not once has my blood or urine or poo been tested! Until now..... blood in my poo, visible blood and now small blood clots in my urine and blood tests showing loss of kidney functioning. Now have had to give 2 more urine samples today, trans vaginal scan and ultrasound on kidneys in 8 days time and bloods at hospital in 9 days time. The doctor who is currently dealing with me I know has followed the 2 week rule on my symptoms and has been really kind and supportive and I really cannot fault him.... BUT..... even by his attitude with me and the urgency in which he is acting.... and above all, the way I feel and have felt for far longer than I even want to think about..... I am now dreading what they may find. I have the most overwhelming gut feeling that it is not going to be good news. If you've got this far, thank you... I REALLY needed to just get that out.
