So sorry to read you have begun on your journey . Although it feels very slow at the time, as I look back on my husbands diagnosis process things happened in a whirlwind at the time, at the same time it felt so slow just wanting the clear diagnosis and path forward. On another note the C19 test referred to we were just recently told by the Oncologist that is not always reliable. Since his was 2 to begin with and remains at a 2 post surgery she said "for him" we cannot rely on that as a marker , as with some others . It may never change (although i wish we could take that number and say it was all a nasty mistake.
Good luck to you @stpatrick1949 on your journey.
