Waiting

After the bombshell of last week’s colonoscopy news with a nice stricture found, had completion CTC and CT Thorax today. If anyone is worried about a CTC all I can say is it was a breeze and nothing to worry about.  Appointment made for next Tuesday to be seen after the MDT for results - nervous and stressed. No one to really talk to this feels a very lonely place at the moment. Set myself some goals regardless of what occurs.

  • Hi again . Yes this waiting period is tough isn’t it? You will honestly feel better once you have the full picture and a plan in place. Setting yourself goals and things to look forward to is a great idea. You know you can always post on here or ring the support team on 0808 808 00 00 if you want to talk - please don’t feel alone.
