Feeling forgotten waiting for test results

Hello, I read your recent post and also your blog to see who you have actually saw in person. I would contact the dermatologist, they might be able to tell you who the best person is to contact. You probably will have to contact a few folk before you reach the right person who can help.

I identify the not being pushy part, but once you get answers you will feel so much better, good luck xx

Yes this is a difficult one especially when you struggle to be assertive. I can relate to this. However, i would also advise that you must be you  own advocate as sometimes things do slip, get overlooked etc.  Be super polite at all times. Keep meticulous notes  of all communications - dates, who you spoke to, what was said etc. You always have the option of speaking to PALS not as a complaint as such, more of a "I'm extremely anxious and would appreviate any help you can offer". 

Update today the larger hospital phoned to arrange an outpatient appointment with the surgeons which was going to be tomorrow. They then cancelled it saying I needed a PET scan first. Then the doctor phoned and said the biopsy results did not show anything but they cannot definitely rule out cancer because the nodes were big on the scan and that is why they want the PET scan which will be a private company as hospital does not have its own
