Just diagnosed

Hey, first of all stop googling stuff it will do you no good. The fact the Doctor is talking openly about an operation is a good sign and the fact they haven't seen anything in the CT is also a great sign. When they got my results from my CT scan they could tell it had spread and they were open with me that they were using the PET scan to confirm everything. I am afraid you need to be patient, but it sounds like you are in good hands.

Hi Browndog, I am sorry that you are going through this. My husband was diagnosed a couple of months ago and the first thing I did was google. I scared myself silly and wish that I hadn't done that now! Then I came on here (which was the best thing I could have done) and read personal experiences and realised that google and the stats don't tell the whole story. Waiting for all the tests is so hard. For my husband, once they were done and he was provided with a treatment plan he felt more in control and now just wants to get on with it. I hope all goes well for your PET scan and please don't google anymore. If you have any questions ask the people on here as they are amazing, kind and so positive. Di

Thank you so much for your words, I won’t google anymore, I’m all googled out,  I’m sorry to hear of your diagnosis and hope you get the treatment you need 

Thank you for your reassuring words also Goldie 3, good luck to your husband too
