Hi
Had blood in urine and doctor has done an urgent referral to Urology
so worried thinking the worst!
said infection wasn’t detected in second urine inspection
Hi Cherbun and a very warm welcome to the Macmillan Community but I am so sorry to hear about your ongoing diagnosis.
I will say that I have had blood in my urine a few times and was checked out by Urology and nothing was found.
But I know from experience having been on my cancer journey for over 26 years with two very rare, hard to treat types of Non Hodgkin’s Lymphomas (one incurable), Asbestosis and Prostate Cancer that navigating this journey can be such a stressful and challenging time but talking with and getting support from people who have walked or are walking the ‘exact same' journey can help a lot.
This New to Community area is like our reception desk where we look to direct you to the best part of the Community for you to get support.
The Community is actually divided into dedicated Cancer Support Groups (Discussion Rooms)………… so if you do find yourself on a cancer pathway you can have a look through this link Cancer Specific Groups where you will find all our dedicated cancer support groups listed.
These groups are safe places to talk to others who may have a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support from members who are navigating the exact same journey.
As always the Macmillan Support Line is open between 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00…… this service provides cancer information, practical information, emotional support, benefits and financial guidance or just a listening ear.
Do get back to me if you need further help navigating the community.
