You are obviously going to be stressed, even though you have a 50% chance of not having cancer.
What happens next? What help and support? There are many questions popping into your brain.
You need to have a consultation with your cancer specialist to get all the facts. If you do have cancer, then you have to try to remain positive, hard I know.
Best wishes,
Mike.

Hi. I have walked in your shoes so I do totally understand how you are feeling. As it turned out mine was cancer, Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, non Hodgkin's disease. If it's not cancer, great. But if it is it's not the end of the world or a death sentence. Like me you have probably caught it, if it is cancer, in the very early stages, we can talk more about symptoms after your diagnosis if necessary, so that's brilliant. I will not go into details now, there is no point as you could be perfectly healthy, but believe me when I tell you that my treatment was by no way as bad as I anticipated. Side effects are kept well under control with medication so do not worry about that. And survival rate is excellent! Talk to me when you get your diagnosis and we will go on your journey together.
