Hi DearB
I remember my core biopsy hurt like....(insert swear words here).
Yes, it seems like a long wait between them whipping the little b@gger out and getting the pathology results. I'm in the public health system so it's been regular trips to the local hospital for me, long waits in the clinics, etc. I get how you're feeling. Just remember to breathe, steady in, steady out....you are in good hands and they will do their best for you.
The cruise sounds wonderful. We jammed a trip away in post-surgery, pre-radiotherapy and it was a really good idea. The change of scene helped a lot, even if I couldn't do any driving at that point.
Waiting for results sucks, we've all been there and I certainly wish you all the best. Do not be ashamed to ask for help. If nothing else I have learned that particular lesson. I had a meltdown in the clinic pre-surgery when they were arranging the barrage of pre-surgery tests, suddenly it was just overwhelming.
Take a book, or a crossword puzzle or whatever floats your particular boat with you tomorrow and try to keep a steady rhythm ... breathe in..... let it out slowly. Thinking of you tomorrow.
Hugs
