Hi ,I have just been revered for a urgent endoscopy,have been under gp  care since December with on going stomach problems,started with abdomen pain also three weeks ago ,over the last two months have now lost over a stone in weight,feeling poorly very scared and anxious can't sleep ,I no this is serious and feel very alone,my body is slowly disappearing in front of me ,when I actually get some treatment I feel it will be to late,so so scared and feeling so alone ,I don't no where to turn .

  • Hi sadly scared                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Oh i can understand you are pleased that,s all over its a nasty procedure.At least now its all moving in the right direction,and getting the scans done will sort out your tummy pains.I am feeling less emotional today thanks,but i am sure all the anxiety will come back on the 17th of this month when i get my tests done.So keep chasing  that doctor and keep well i will keep you posted but if you want a chat or a moan just message me i am always here Keep Well Xx

    Hi,hope your ok ,I know your scans are due next week,I will be thinking of you honey,it's a very emotional time ,I'm feeling wobbly today ,being positive is not easy and I'm having a struggling time ,tears are coming on and off at the moment,waiting for results is never easy and I know we all find it hard and very anxious times,I have gone back to work to try and get some normality while waiting on results,also saw my GP yesterday and have urgent referred for CT scan on abdomen for on Going pain, so waiting on the appointment ,I just find this waiting is just taking over my life ,still feeling like I'm in a bubble not knowing it's just so hard,one minute I think I wish I could turn back time,then I'm thinking you got to be strong to fight this ,whatever this is ,be positive and be strong ,then I'm like a frightened little girl it's not easy i no ,my family are being very positive and you no it will be ok lots of treatments out there your going to be fine,however when we feel unwell and can see the difference and the changes our body is going through not easy,I say to myself keep smiling and you can do this,it's a beautiful sunny day here hope you are having a good day ,take care and keep well.xx

  • Hi sadly scared                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Thank you, yes next Tuesday is the dreaded day, as we have both said before you want them and you don,t want them.I am still working  too as i find it helps to take my mind of things a little, but i have had to adjust my job because of the pain in my shoulder blade and ribs.I think the waiting is the worse of it , like you i want to know what i am up against so i can sort it out.Then i think no i don,t want to know then i don,t have to deal with it my head is all over the place i am scared, worried,anxious,all at the same time, my moods are all over the place.Yes there are lots of treatments out there i am being told this all the time too but maybe our heads are not there yet maybe we need more time for our brains to catch up.Anyway on a lighter note glad to hear you have a urgent referral for a CT scan that should get to the bottom of your problems.I have decided that this weekend i am going to be strong and smile more i am sure other people are fed up of looking at my miserable face just as much as i am ha ha.I hope you have a good weekend with your children and partner and try and take your mind of all thats happening take care and keep well Xx

    Why can't we all just go off and hibernate for 6 months like a hedgehog and wake up refreshed, ready to profit from new ideas and treatments.?

    I think our friends and partners would vote for that, my wife certainly would!

    Big hopes for everyone on here.
