Just a bit of background: had my yearly physical with mammo, blood test, urine sample etc.
mammo and blood fine, urine sample came back with blood. booked for an ultrasound and appt with a urologist.
doctor also checked the sk's I have on my back (seborrheic keratoses; have had them for years) and she decides she wants one biopsied, just to be cautious.
So I'm already a mess with the stupid urine thing,and today I get a call from the surgeon to meet on the 18th for a "consultation" re the biopsy. The nurse wants me to provide a list of all meds and everyone in my family who've had cancer. All standard operating procedure, I know, but it still unnerves me.
Now I have to reschedule my psychiatrist appt which was on that day--and it's him I need to see the most!
I asked him to phone me back tomorrow. He's a real sweetie and I know he will.
The stress of this is totally wrecking me. It's bringing back memories of when I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. Thank god I have the lorazepam.
