Just diagnosed. Waiting MDT

I am also in the same state of confusion and disbelief. Following a positive result from a bowel screening test, I had a colonoscopy on Monday and was told that a biopsy was needed and a scan. 

I managed to speak to a specialist nurse a few days later, who told me that I would receive an appointment for a scan. She said that following the results a plan would be put in place.

I feel all over the place and I am trying to hold it together. It was my elder daughter's birthday dinner tonight and it felt surreal. I have not told her anything yet. 

My husband has been so supportive but I can tell he is extremely stressed. 

I came on this forum last night and felt the care and support. It helped me get through some lonely hours. I hope you  also feel that love and support. Take care.

I hope you continue to come here for love and support, because you will always receive it. Hope everything works out for you, but if the results are positive for cancer, you will be amongst people also on our own journeys and we all help each other along xxx

Thank you. It is much appreciated.

I really feel for you. For the past week or so its felt like going through the motions of everyday life with a silent narrative of 'I've got cancer' going in a loop around my head. Feel so much better having seen the consultant & team and starting a plan to get better.  My husband's stressed too, bless him. Sending hugs and empathy.

I echo what a lovely and supportive forum this is, people at all stages of the journey which I have felt massively reassuring.  I totally understand where you are at the moment. I was you over Christmas, stunned and wondering what the hell was going on.

Good luck with scans etc, hang on in there, things move fast and you are on track to get things sorted xxx
