Good luck tamsin. I too am at start of process so playing the waiting game too. . It's hard not to anticipate isn't it but we must at this stage not cross any bridges till we get there. .

I am old enough to have had a few health scares in my life and have found looking logically at know facts rather than "what if " keeps me a bit less emotional about it while retaining hopefully sensible awareness of options I need to know. We need to be scared enough to seek help but not too scared we get ill over it ... hard to find the balance isn't it.

Fingers crossed.
