    It will be so much clearer for you and everyone when you have your pathology results. Rest, heal, go for some walks, eat nourishing foods, and take one day at a time. What part of the country are you in? Hopefully it's not too cold and you can spend some time in nature. Many of us here find that very soothing! Hang in there. K xox

    @tdonelly2000  -  I hope you managed some sleep (impossible tho it is in hospitals!) and that you get some answers to your questions this morning.

    Make haste slowly & all the best for your results xxx

    Hopefully the surgeon has seen you early this morning and explained things and you are on the discharge list. Always better when you get home to your own bed. <3

    Hi @tdonelly2000 such a challenging time for you and likely adding to anxiety and concerns Best place to be while you await results I hope you got some sleep overnight Thinking of you as you wait amidst all the uncertainty Maybe writing a list of questions about your experience if you are up to it  could clarify your concerns by getting them out of your head. Take care

    @tdonelly2000 sounds like a bit of a debacle. It’s always horrible waiting for results. Hope u r comfortable and pain free xo
