Scared about my future

[eslin]

well i find it very strange espcisaly if it was so bad that its tumor or something else they would want to be quick about it don’t u think

@eslinas @Asche explained is not that simple.
The original mri was done inpatient and I was discharged that day with a referral to a specialist. I never ended up seeing the specialists. Since I was admitted again and my blood tests still showed something was wrong they got the endocrine reg to come and see me. He reviewed the mri and gave me the news.
I don't have a gp or specialists yet, which is another reason why it took so long.
Not everything is simple

Hey @redhead

Just wanted to let you know that we're all here for you during this difficult time, and that I really do wish the best for you. Best of luck, hopefully you will get some answers soon <3 <3

@eslin where I live it's not like that. I have to have an emergency appointment with ophthalmologist since I found out and that still took 2.5 weeks to get (seeing them Tuesday). I'm still waiting for endocrinologist and oncologist appointments because of how screwed the hospital and out-patient is.
And yeh at this stage my tumour isn't too bad but it's still serious and has the potential to kill me.

hey @redhead how are you going?

[redhead]

@scared01 I'm ok. The appointment I had today didn't give me any more information, other than 'the tests showed some anomalies, but not enough to give clue to what's going on, we'll repeat the test in a month and arrange for a few more.

It's kinda reassuring that the more people I talk to about this says that it's not as bad as I thought, and I should be ok even if I have the tumour the rest of my life.

[scared01]

that is good to hear @redhead even though i cant really imagine how scary this would be for you. the unknown scares me too but it sounds abit more reassuring that others are saying its not to bad.
sounds as if your coping a little better?

@redhead I'm sorry to hear all the latest news. *Hugs*
I hope your upcomming appointments go well and you can get a better idea of your tumor and see what the best treatment plan is <3

[redhead]

Thanks @Bee @scared01

@eslin I'm sorry for being so rude to you. I have a lot going on, it doesn't excuse it but I am sorry.
