Tomorrow’s nearly here for PET-CT scan at Kings College, last couple weeks have dragged, feeling drained, nervous, nauseous, unable to function properly doing best I can, feeling out of sorts, achy, sneezing few times, possibly cold lurking, hopefully is dust from kitchen works being done at moment, hopefully won’t get worse till after tomorrow. My doctor decided to give me course of antibiotics he doesn’t want scan to be reschedule.
Last week emailed Jane Macmillan Nurse asking of my results bloods taken around 3-4 weeks ago, to be told those received back are “within normal range”the other 2 takes longer needing to grow, she did say bloods will be repeated once at Kings. Given results they look promising, encouraging with positive thinking. Tomorrow’s scan will show if there are any other tumours also exactly where they are, hopefully it’s just the one contained, benign would be great! Will have results early next week, I will let you all know how tomorrow goes.
Thank you to you all for your kind messages of support.
Wishing you all a pain free, peaceful day
Best wishes to you all

That's really good news about the bloods Pamela, hope the others will be OK too. I hope your sneezing etc is nothing to worry about and maybe feeling out of sorts could be stress for the upcoming appointment tomorrow. Good luck with it, I hope all goes very well indeed for you and please let us know how it goes. Thinking of you. 🙏 xx
Blood results is positive also picked me up. It’s the not knowing until I get full results. DNA inside a cell tells the cells what to do, multiply rapidly into tumours, however some grow slow. Feeling out of sorts hopefully will ease once tomorrow’s out the way. Felt bad as I was meant to of gone to hospital with Diana this afternoon, she’s going with me tomorrow unfortunately wasn’t up to going, she did say she preferred if I didn’t go to make sure I’m fine for tomorrow, still can’t help feeling bad letting Diana down. Thank you Springcross xxx
I understand what you're saying. All this is obviously bound to drag you down but as you say, hopefully it will ease once tomorrow's been sorted. I'm sure Diana didn't mind, she understands how you're feeling and she's right, you need to be fine for tomorrow - it's a shame you couldn't go with her but needs must. As I said earlier, all the very best for tomorrow, thinking of you. xx
I'm sorry the last couple of weeks have dragged so. Limbo is a terrible place to be. Like other posters have already said, I'm pleased you had a set of "good" blood test results. Try and hang onto that as a positive. (Easy for me to say, I know).
Wishing everything goes well with your scan and you get the best possible outcome. Thinking of you x
The previous 4 weeks seemed rushed It’s only the last 2 weeks in limbo, tomorrow I’m not looking forward to, it’s the results I’m wanting, I am holding on to the blood tests being good that’s positivity xx
I'm not surprised you're not looking forward to tomorrow, I would certainly feel the same. As you say, the blood tests were good, that's definitely something worth holding on to. You are going through something so difficult, and you are being very strong. We're all thinking of you xx
Will be thinking of you tomorrow and wishing for the best possible outcome too. The time must have really dragged for you bless you with the time you have waited for the scan. xx
Right, I’m keeping everything crossed until your next update Pamelah. Hope your hospital visit goes smoothly tomorrow, we’ll all be with you in spirit (just given myself a slightly disturbing vision of us all hanging about behind you as you walk down the hospital corridors - sorry about that!)
