Re: Going Out of My Mind Waiting for Test Results

@Lipstickdiva I don't know what I could say to ease your concern but my thoughts are with you.

 

Is there any possibility you could call and ask for the results?

@Lipstickdiva, I'll be thinking of you and checking to see good news. The doctor's office might be short staffed and there hasn't been time to get the results to you yet. I know how that goes. let us know.

@Lipstickdiva   No news is good news!   Most doctors these days will wait until end of day before leaving before they contact a patient about test results.   I pray your results will be good and you can relax and enjoy your good health.

There is nothing I (or any of us here) can say that will assuage your anxiety ... I know this from experience.  

 

For several years I had to have diagnostic mamograms every three months because of suspicious irregularities on my scans ... not just due to  "dense" tissue, but other abnomalities.  I  had several surgeries that also proved negative. 

 

I worried every single time ... until I was released by my specialist.  I am in that one-tenth of one percent of the population that defied conventional  testing.

 

So ... go ahead and do your thing ... worry.   It's in your genes.

 

But know this ... you will be fine!

Re: Going Out of My Mind Waiting for Test Results

I totally understand your anxiety and prayers for good results. And I find it annoying doctors seem to take their own sweet time getting back to you with results--my experience anyway. Went through this last year when a mammogram came back suspicious and ended up having to have a biopsy done. Waited and waited for results to come back and I eventually had to be the one to call THEM to find out!

@Lipstickdiva 

 

You are familiar enough with me to know what I would say, so!  I won't say it, other than! Sending my best wishes to you.

Re: Going Out of My Mind Waiting for Test Results

Oh, @Lipstickdiva , I feel your anxiety!   I have been there many times.  It seems every time I am sure all is good is when I get the bomb dropped; whenever I stress all is good.  By now I have just learned to not think about it and wait to see....but whenever my doc's name appears on the ringing phone my heart drops.

Good luck and prayers for good news.  Waiting for the answers are awful.  Try to stay calm.  Let us know.
