Hi Carp:
Welcome to the family. It's a big one, with lots of members who share your situation. You will get all the answers you need here.

It sounds like you are waiting on biopsy results. Perhaps the one thing you don't want to be doing right now is wondering/worrying over whether they are positive for cancer or negative. I know it's hard to do ,but try to go on and live your life to the fullest extent possible. Don't sit at home and fret over it. The answers will come in due time and then you will plan your next steps.

If you get your hopes up that you don't have cancer, then the results come back positive, you've set yourself up for a downer and maybe some depression. One good friend here of the forum, username Bart has a phrase for it; don't attach to outcomes. To me it just means, wait and see, if I have cancer then I'll move on to the next part of the treatment journey. If not, then I won't. But either way, I'm not going to sit here and worry.

It has helped me sleep much better at night, and I was positive for cancer.

Again, welcome, stay in touch, we will help you through this journey.

Tony
