lily my mum and dad mentioned my cancer in their Christmas letter last year. My mum wasn't sure but we decided it'd be weirder to leave it out given that it was one of the biggest things that had happened to us that year! We'd already told close friends and family, and others if/when we happened to see or speak to them.
goodness I hope you get some answers soon! I was a rare case too, it's like being a medical celebrity. When I went to A&E doctors kept coming up to introduce themselves, "I've heard so much about you, it's nice to finally meet you"
on the upside though, everyone will remember your case so when you phone they're less likely to need to go and find your notes before answering questions! Plus you'll likely get the absolute best team.
marshy hope you've had a relaxing day. It's easy to overdo it in the rush to get back to 'normal'
holsten the fit sounds terrifying, good that you're signed off work, hopefully you're able to rest/relax a little, although not at all easy with results hanging over you - I hope you've had news by now?
wren I hope you've reached a decision you're comfortable with, such a lot of pressure, not what you need when making such an important decision!
I hope everyone is having a good evening 
I don't want to speak too soon, but my bowel finally seems to be calming down from surgery/chemo
