Big Day tomorrow

Tomorrow I have two appointments. Respiratory clinic for results of CT scan and breast clinic for biopsy results.

How am I meant to cope with this? My Respiratory clinic is at 11am and biopsy at 3.30pm so I have hours to wait at the hospital to find out if I have (more)cancer.

I'm trying to prepare. Any tips?

Sorry no tips; but wishing you all the best 💐

Take a book/kindle, have some lunch if you can. Is it a big hospital with some shops you could look around? Will anyone be going with you? Best of luck for tomorrow.

I'm going by myself. I'm making sure to take water because I keep nearly passing out. There's a cafe there so I'll make sure I eat. I don't know about shops. I might call after the Respiratory clinic and see if the breast clinic will bring my appointment forward, otherwise I could be waiting for hours. Thanks for the well wishes it's appreciated.

Good luck today. Hope it’s good news but as a two time BC survivor can I send strength and love and you will get through this!
