The Results!!!

Well after a lot of running round in circles and a bit of whimpering at the PALS service. The results were faxed over to my GP yesterday. I allowed them til today to get the information onto their computers.

I saw the GP this afternoon and the results are that all is clear. There is no return of the DFSP and no evidence or any other malignancy. There was evidence of localised inflammation and the lump was a hypertropic scar (a raised scar to you and I). Absolutely nothing to worry about thankfully.

So this last week's worry over letters has been not necessary.

I'm absolutely thrilled with the results, it is very good news indeed and as its Yule its just an added welcome present for the day. Now to celebrate (Like I need an excuse! lol)

Letter received

Well I received a letter today, advising me that the consultant wished to see me and that an appointment had been made for March 2011. Considering I was advise that he would only wish to see me if I needed further treatment it doesn't sound too promising. I'm hoping that my ability to read between the lines is very wrong in this instance, we shall see.

I've decided that I cannot wait until March to find out the results for sure, I'd rather they just tell me so I've made an appointment to see my GP on Thursday to have a chat. I'm hoping that they have the results. I need to call the GP surgery tomorrow to confirm the appointment, to be honest I may just call in in person and ask if they'd received any results from the hospital regarding the biopsy. The receptionists don't need to tell me what is in the letter (though I'd like it if they would) but at least I'd be seeing the GP knowing he has the information I'm after.

Wish me luck!
