Yesterday, I got a blood-test result I didn't like. Today, my endocrinologist tells me the change is not necessarily significant, given the margin of error, and we'll re-test in a month (and she wants to see me about the troubling symptoms). So I feel better today about the whole thing, but still: fuck cancer.

FUCK CANCER! Hope the re-test proves there was nothing to worry about. And good luck with the troubling symptoms - hope something can be sorted out there.

*sigh* I'm sorry, sweetie.

A month? Why not sooner? And I will keep you in my prayers.

This level doesn't change quickly, and the margin of error is such that a new test at the same time would be meaningless. (It takes weeks for the level of TSH in someone's blood to change.)

I see. Thank you.

I hate the way it's so tempting for me to let so much ride on blood test results.

me, too, also.
