Feeling frustrated

[Sawdust23]

The results of my liver biopsy were inconclusive because they missed the target area. They took tissue samples of my normal liver cells, not from the lesion on the liver. Super frustrated to have gone through that experience for nothing. Now trying to determine next steps with medical team. Life can be so frustrating at times. I’m trying to be at peace but struggle with the unknown, in this case my health. Anxiety is high and I’m doing my best to stay away from sinking into depression. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

I am so sorry this happened. I can't even imagine the level of anxiety you are having.

I've had few medical issues that required me to wait for results and the time goes by so slow. I know your situation is completely different.

The only way I got through it was just grabbing on to the times when it slipped my mind for a bit. I kept trying to tell myself there were no answers yet and all I knew was I was waiting.

I don't know if that's at all helpful. I just want you to know I'm thinking of you and I hope things come together soon so you have a plan.

I can sympathise. I am getting a procedure done tomorrow because they couldn't get my biopsy three weeks ago. I know how frustrating it is

[Sawdust23 in reply to Roxylox]

good luck with your procedure tomorrow! I’ll be thinking of you

I’m sorry that happened to you.

When I am afraid of something in the future, a good friend always asks me a great question. She says, “What do you know now?” It reminds me to look at the moment. And usually everything is manageable in the moment.

Hard to practice, but it calms me down.

Sending hugs.
