Re: worried

Try to breathe and wait for the actual news @outlander ...... hopefully it won't be that, but try to keep steady until you know. It's hard, but not good to put yourself through the panic, then finding it's not true ......

Breathe ...... defer the panic till you know ......

Re: worried

@Former-Member he has to go for bloods tomorrow and ct possibly tomorrow or Wednesday then should get results by friday.

He doesnt realise thats what they are looking for. I cant tell him yet. Itll put stress on him and i xan hardly cope myself righy now.
To make it worse the carer (me) needs more caring then he does as i have kidney infection and need chest xrays for a cough as they thinking worse than a viral thing for cough.

I so friggin hope its not cancer for him and if it is i hope its benign. He has a stent in the same place as the mark so they are hoping its just scar tissue but theu wont know for sure till results are back
