Hi, looking for advice for coping with the not knowing. I had what I thought at the time was an xray to help treat my asthma. 1 day after the xray the hospital called and asked me to go for a CT scan the next morning. Obviously by now I'm suspecting something is quite serious as hospitals don't ring and get you in for a CT scan next day for no reason! So 2 days after that I speak to a GP from my surgery who told me he had ordered the xray as I had a persistant cough and breathless, that he had seen the request for a CT scan due to a shadow of concern on the xray. I now have an appointment in General medicine for 2 weeks time? I'm so confused, am I waiting to find out if I have cancer or not? All signs point to this I just wondered if other people had been through the same and advice for coping with the waiting ....
