At the risk of sounding like a broken record from here: http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/showthread.php?p=1080402#post1080402 I have a bloodtest tomorrow, and possibly a scan of some kind afterwards for a small movable hardish lump on my neck (I can't tell if it'sd hard or soft, it's about pea sized and quite flat, but it does move about a lot which is a good thing isn't it?)
I called the Doc this morning to check whether or not I needed to fast for the test (I don't) and she told me a few of the things they're testing for - thyroid (the big one that worries me), blood count, electrolyte check (what is that anyway?), liver check, etc etc. I think this is routine for stuff that hasn't gone away in a while but... urrrrgh.
I'm kind of terrified I have thyroid cancer or something like that. :weep: How the heck do I calm down?
