In a&e just told I have a brain tumour

[Wells37]

Just that really. It's 2cm ish on ct scan symptoms for 5 weeks. I can't stop crying. I just sent dh home as kids are at home.
Terrified

Oh bless you. It's because you feel so exhausted. You've already been given the bad news and you're still processing it. Also, google is not your friend. The algorithms mean that the worst case scenarios tend to crop up first. Cancer treatments have evolved so much in the last few years that they have rendered a lot of studies/prognosis info as irrelevant.

Hi op just read the thread. I really hope for good news for you. Google is not your friend in this situation just try to keep yourself as distracted as you can

Sending you very best wishes xxx

completely agree with this. Stay away for the internet as it will only make you feel worse.

I really hope the news isn't bad but if it is, that it isn't as bad as you fear @Wells37 .

Nothing to add but a hand hold and all the luck in the world for some good news.

ear plugs for the ward at night?
podcasts- I like Adam Buxton. Light and gentle and funny.

Just stopping by to say I hope you get some answers today Op and a positive plan going forward.I have been thinking about you and sending you love,courage and strength . I am sure you know we, although strangers, are all rooting for you xx

I’m so sorry that must have been such a shock. I do know others who have had the same and are now fine so keep strong and lots of love to you xxx

Giving you another hand to hold @Wells37 your DH and friend sound wonderful. Lean on anyone you can

Really hoping for the best for you 🙏 ❤️

Just joining everyone else peeking through the ward window, trying to work out which bed you are in and how many chairs we can steal from the other pts so we can sit with you.

In my sensible vein, this will be a journey for you and you have heard the worst, that you have a tumour, the rest is frosting because they will be able to tell you what needs to happen next and how. Get your question list ready but prepare to hear occasionally, we are not sure.

If good wishes were medicine, I reckon you have a pharmacopoeia supporting you today.
