Newly diagnosed over Christmas..

Hi kmakm, the first doctor that told me I had cancer was a young pregnant woman, very matter of fact and unsympathetic. The breast nurse that was with me at the time and was beautiful, she held my hand and was full of empathy. The second doctor, a consultant, called me into his room but failed to introduce himself, - big mistake! I work in the medical field and expect staff to have the common courtesy to introduce themselves. Anyway, once we got over that hurdle we got on fine. He never had the results for what type of cancer I have and said they must not have done them. I told him they were done because I discussed this with the first doctor. He mentioned this to one of the nurses, she said the tests were done but didn’t have the results. I kinda feel like I’m in limbo. I have a pre-admission appointment on the 23rd of this month and will be armed with a list of questions. Any suggestions?

 I am unsure how to use this network. i.e. Some people refer to me as @Tidden, why put @ at the front of my name. How do you reply just one person? ‘Sister’ posted a comment above yours, do I reply here, or do I click on her name?
