Definitely you should call or have someone call for you to impress on the doctor, or on whoever is there that stress is about to make you sick and that you need answers very soon or at least something to give you stress relief! As others have noted, a biopsy is the only way to tell for sure if it's cancer and ask about this, too! They can't know what you are feeling unless you make it clear and they will be more likely to speed things up for you. When you start doing something, whatever it is, this will give you more of a feeling of control and you will feel better. Do let us know what's happening with you. Then we'll feel better, too!
