Basically, I had a massive HA attack last October where I was convinced that I had Ovarian cancer. I marched in to my doctor's and told him as much. He examined my tummy and said he wasn' worried but he would send me for blood tests anyway so I got sent for a fasting blood test, CA125 blood test, CAE (generic cancer test), liver function, white blood count as he just wanted to check everything was fine as I'd been feeling low in general but he thought this was due to anxiety.
Well, basically because I am a massive wuss I didn't ring in for the results. "They'll call me if anything serious is up" I thought. Then i started to feel better so didn't worry about it and totally forgot about the bloods...
Now, I need to go to the doctor's tomorrow about my tinnitus and I just went on their website to get the new number and there is a massive notice on the front page saying that basically if you have any tests done it is up to the patient to find the results out and that the surgery are not responsible. So now am bricking myself that when I go tomorrow, my results will be flagged up and I'm going to find out something horrible.
Why am I so stupid? :weep:
