Title: Just sounding off
Post by: Scottietottie on October 25, 2024, 07:54:51 AM
Hi ...... I went to my GP last week because I've had a stomach for a while.
He arranged a speedy blood test, a 'poo kit' from the local hospital and an appointment for an ultra sound that I am waiting for a letter for.
Got the blood test result back. The test was for CA 125. Result - abnormal.
I know what the test is for and I know it's not definitive as it can indicate a number of different things. I just need to switch my imagination off now.
Really hoping the ultrasound appointment comes soon.
Thanks for listening - Scottie.

Sound off any time you want! That's why were here isn't it? to share each others concerns and suppost each other.

The most frightrening time in any disease process, I find, is the period of uncertainty; waiting for final results, clarifying things, meanwhile worrying worst case, hoping for best case, and hopefully preparing for anything in between!
