Results

Good evening Anthony5 ,

my OH was told over the phone and we were a bit perturbed about the whole insensitive manner. 

Your GP might be able to access your results during a consultation . As ours was able to tell us initially that his bone scan was clear . Might be worth an ask . then you are prepared with a list of questions you need answered .

It might be worth having someone with you during the phone consultation both for support and to have an extra ear . 

Best Wishes & keep in touch 

Liz & OH xx

Liz & OH, Thank you for your reply. Good idea about the GP. My plan is to put my phone on speaker, with my wife beside me. Thanks again.

Hi Anthony5

I think that your plan is a good one, and the best that you can do, given the circumstances.

I received my initial cancer diagnosis over the phone, following routine lab analysis of removed tissue after a procedure for BPH.  Although due to my age (69 at time) and PSA level, the element of surprise was limited, and the diagnosis thankfully was relatively 'mild'.  

I hope that you have the best possible outcome.  The wait must have been, and doubtless continues to be, difficult for you.  

Kind regards, Peroni.
