Making an appointment for the next month (surgery, time, ultrasound)

[Shankapotomus]

The only time I could see a doctor about some frequent and unusual intestinal activity is the 8th of next month.

If this turns out to be symptoms of a cancer, can waiting that long to see a doctor be the difference between minor surgery or a more involved operation?

I can also just be paranoid and it's just severe indigestion or my first ulcer. Having not had much experience with either, I could be just a nervous nelly.

Thanks.

Yes, you are being a nervous nelly.
Good luck on your appointment.

I know how you feel. I was once told i had a swollen ovary AND a lump in my breast by the NP and then it took 6 weeks for an ultrasound! !? I was freaking out the whole time. But A-ok!

And the "good" thing that came of it was that this year when I had to redo my mam, i was not nearly as nervous about the wait!

So this is like your "practice wait" for all the future waiting you will ha email to do!
