Very worried
I can only say I will think of you, it is too easy to stop worrying so much, but easier said than done.
Its natural to feel worried about this. Try to distract yourself until the doctors are able to tell you more. Time to practice deep breathing.
There will be treatment they can offer you if necessary. I have been told that it is thought that myeloma has entered my bone marrow which makes me feel quite sick (with worry) but after this suspicion was told by another specialist that I was doing all right and could be left for the time being. I continue to be monitored but have felt so much better during lock down because haven't been frightened so much by respiratory consultants. I do fear having to have a bone marrow biopsy. Do you know what the next step is for you and when you will be able to talk to a consultant? I am sure you are expecting the worst but it might not be so bad so try and put your worry aside for now. Going for walks I think helps.
Im. thinking of you x
Fully understand why you are so worried, I was when I was diagnosed with Lung Cancer, at the time, as we all do, I thought that was it and mentally didn't cope with the news at all well. That was in December 2016, for me I had to have a lobectomy (part of my lung removed) in March 2017, I still have to have regular check ups, but after the operation I really didn't know what I had got myself so worked up about. I think I am trying to say please do not be like me in thinking the worst, I know we are all different but please don't give up on hope. Sue xxx
