First, take a breath. Do you know any breathing exercises? If so, do them to try and calm down. Let’s look at the positives: you were able to get medical care when you needed it, doctors have found a cause and now you await a course of action. You can “what if” yourself into a frenzy. Whatever it is, you can handle it. The waiting is definitely terrible but we are here for you to vent to. Hope you hear something soon.
