Thinking of you as you continue waiting.
I hope that the extra testing simply indicates good, attentive, thorough care! That is definitely better than a physician overlooking something that could be monitored and prove to be informative and helpful.
Knowledge is power.
I am sorry that the frustrations are mounting for you as you mark a fourth year dealing with this cancer. It’s true that the sense of medical trauma can increase as time marches on and we continue to battle disease and spend much energy, time, and resources simply managing our care-appointments, scheduling, testing, lab work, prescriptions, insurance, billing, et cetera.
The illness may be exhausting, medication side effects can be debilitating, and the general fatigue can wear a person down.
The weight of all of it can be heavy.
So, something like an extra long wait for results feels like one more thing that is simply “too much.”
It’s not an easy place to be.
I hope you were able to enjoy your vacation and find some refreshment in that change of pace and scenery.
Do you have access to a good therapist? Is it helpful to talk through things?
I hope you have the support you need and feel that you are cared for well.

Blessings to all of you working to maintain the best health possible or trying to regain that which has been taken by disease.
Take good care of yourselves!
