Hi I'm hoping someone can give me some advice and poss out my mind at rest. I went into hospital with kidney stones and uti last wk. They did a ct a nice which has shown and enlarged spleen and swollen nodes. The urology team discharged me as kidney stones have passed and they could send me home with antibiotics for my uti. Before leaving the ward a gentleman came and intruded himself as a heamotoloist specialising in lymphoma. I was frozen to the spot. He explained what they had found and that they want to do another ct scan the next day to scan my neck thorax and abdo. I stayed in for another night so they could do the scan first thing. This scan came back clear thank god! I am now left in limbo, they are netting with mdt tomorrow and they said I will hear from them asap so I expect to get a call Thursday or Friday. Am I over reacting and easing too much into this as one doctors thankfully said it could be nothing! This is the one time I'll be happy to be called a dram queen as I'm in abs turmoil at the minute. I'm keeping myself busy distracting myself but there is no escaping my thoughts. Thanks in advance guys. Sorry if this is wasting anyone's time xx
