Driving myself mad, haematology results tomorrow.

I think i am just after support these last 6 weeks waiting for results ends tomorrow and if i am honest i just want to cry. 

Im under investigation for lymphoma have loads of symptoms and found a lump a few days ago that i will tell them about tomorrow. I feel soooo anxious and stressed right now.

Work has been a good distraction until today where i dnt know if im just being sensative or the customers are being horrible.

  • Hi Sammy - waiting for results is AWFUL I know 'cause I've been there. I understand your wanting to cry lots of us on this site have so we do understand. The stress & anxiety feels endless & it's very difficult not to feel that way so you are just like the rest of us in that respect. I wish I had a magic wand to make the time pass more quickly for you but of course I don't. I can tell you tho' that keeping as busy as you can doing normal/everday things does help.

    Things may not turn out as bad as fear & if you do get bad news it's better to know than this agony of waiting & not knowing. I was lucky with my results but people here (& they'll be along), will tell you that you'll cope better than you might imagine if the news isn't positive. I bet you're braver than you think!

    Never mind your customers you have more important things going on. 

    I'll keep my fingers crossed that all turns out well for you. My GP tells me that 9 our 10 people who are tested for cancer don't have the illness. If there is an issue with you it might well be sorted out quickly so don't despair.

    Keep posting here as & when you feel the need & others will come along to help & support you. 

    Kind regards x

  • Thank you sooo much for replying :) 

    I agree its better knowing, ive had an on going abdominal pain issue for the last 12 years that has only recently been started to figure out as most gps put it down to ibs or anxiety !! 

    I suppose im stressing because i feel like rubbish with all the symptoms ect.

    Thanks again

  • I feel exactly the same hun.....i feel like I'm going mad with worry at the moment, i see a specialist on the 2nd July....and its like all this anxiety with me day and night, how am i going to cope until then.

    I have two children and its hard doing anything when you have this at the forefront of your mind.

    Hugs......i too feel pants, not sure if its anxiety or the fact I'm overthinking symptoms!

     

  • Cant really add to what the other have said. Waiting for results can be the worse part. Once you have them, you know what your dealing with.

    Take someone with you at your appointment if you can.

    Depending on your results, they will let you know what happens next, but ask question !!!!!

    Hope is goes well tomorrow 

    PS - Most of us have been through the range of emotions, including anxiety/fear, that this situation causes 

  • Hi 

    I'm going through the same thing just got my appointment threw for 1st July for same place your going . Its living hell waiting and waiting . I've had screening test already and found a trace of lymphoma in my blood . My gp told me last week . So further tests on 1st .. its horrid,  I have 2 lumps on my neck that I've had for around 6 weeks . This is why I want gp. But since my last appointment back in January 19 I had bloods and nothing wrong . 6 month later and I've constantly got headache night sweats, cough and so tired its untrue .. my appitite has gone .. all these symptoms.  I'm so nervous of what they gonna do and say to me .. I believe I have it as they found a trace .. 

  • Thank you everyone for responding to me today :)

    I wish everyone who is waiting for results good news. I've been calling the waiting a new level of hell. 

    Xxx

  • Good luck with your results today hun, let me know how it goes xx

  • Good luck today - the waiting will soon be over for you thank goodness. :):):)

     

  • Hey everyone.

    First i just want to day thank you to everyone who has messaged me ect.

    Its good news in the sense that the haematologist said its not blood cancer or lymphoma but im a little frustrated in the sense that there is no answer to the symptoms so have been advised to go back to gp to see if its autoimmune or endocronology related.

    Hope everyone elses results are good. Wishing you all the best xx 

  • Excellent news. Good luck with sorting it all out - sure you'll be fine. x
