Waiting for tests

Thank you both for your support and understanding. It's so much appreciated. I know I need to keep away from Dr Google - I'm so annoyed with myself for doing it this morning. I'm going to talk to the Macmillan support staff tomorrow and will think again about talking to my GP. 

Thanks again.

You take care! Please talk to your GP again. It is part of their job to support you 

I'm glad to hear that you're going to get some help .

Let us know how you get on tomorrow.

I called the doctor's and I'm talking to the GP on Friday.

That's great! You need the support and it's important that your GP is aware of your concerns. Did you speak to the helpline today too?

Wishing you all the best! Don't know why this typeface is so small!!!

Oops! I've realised the typeface is normal size once you post it!!!

I had to go in to work so I couldn't speak to the helpline. Tomorrow hopefully. I've had a really up and down day, fluctuating between feeling ok and feeling awful.

Thanks again for your support.

Many people describe feeling like they are on a rollercoaster of emotions & also worrying about every ache & pain so it may help you emotionally to expect to feel up and down and that it is normal to feel this way

Bless you Tony.

It is honestly ok and normal to be, and feel scared. 

I am fortunate to have had all my scans and biopsies, and now at the stage of waiting on a date for neck dissection etc.    Honestly?  The worst part was and is the waiting.   Once you have been to the hospital, whichever way it is going to be, you will have a plan.  We all know what you  going thru and it can be terrifying.   Thinking of you.  

After another bad night's sleep I'm having another up and down (mainly down) day. I've got various aches and pains and I don't know whether they're something I should be concerned about or just the result of worry and tiredness. But I'm being good and resisting the temptation to consult Google. Trying to focus on taking it one day at a time but failing badly.
