My husband had surgery to remove a growth on his tongue. The growth was removed and a biopsy was performed. We were told that it would take a few weeks to get the results of the biopsy.
On Monday, I received a call from the oral surgeon's office telling me that the results of the biopsy was in and she needed to schedule an appt to discuss with us. I asked if she could let me know anything over the phone and she said that it was the doctor's policy to discuss results (good or bad) in person. She said she could get us in on Friday. I was suspicious but tried to put it out of my mind since my husband and 2 children were out of town until Tuesday. When my husband returned and I told him about the call, he was calm but I started to lose it. I cannot help thinking negatively. Not knowing lead me right to the internet surfing like crazy and not liking what I read.
My husband also has complained that his jaw has been hurting him - which does not sound like a good sign.
Why would they wait until Friday to discuss with us if the news is that there is some stage of cancer? Wouldn't they have asked to see us immediately if the news was bad? I am so worried and confused. What do you think?
