Having spent the most of last night tosssing and turning and zipping through the tv channels finally daylight arrived.
Had a very sickly cup of coffee to get me motivated then jumped into the shower for my big date with the consultant. Arrived 10 minutes early and had to wait another 20 mins to be called in by the nurse to have my dressings taken off and stitcches trimmed.
Imagine my embarrassment when I clocked eyes on my file on her desk and saw the post-it note stuck on the front 'HISTOLOGY INCOMPLETE', I didnt wait for her to explain instead I burst out crying, worried look between her and my other half and then a warm arm around me telling me it was all ok.
On to the bed to wait for consultant to prod and poke and say everything looked great, big tears sliding down my face and then again sobbing started as he explained the path results were not through and I would have to wait until next Thursday for the results.....have they any idea the torment of waiting for results causes us. I know there is nothing I can do to change this but I wish they had rang me yesterday and told me not to bother putting myself through the misery all night and to save it for next week instead.
Knackered and down now so see you all later.
Take care love Terri xxx
