I'm not going to tell him.....

Hope all your news is good news and that your OH has a good adventure.

GA having met you, I KNOW you have thought it through, and I agree with you 100%!

Sending you love and every good wish!

Aw - thank you all. I'm pretty sure the decision I've taken is the right one for us - and I think that in similar circumstances it's what my husband would do. I just don't see any point in worrying him unnecessarily - and I can honestly say that I'm not a great worrier when it comes to my own health, so I'll just put it to one side until I know there's actually something to worry about.

I must say that the last time I had an endoscopy it seemed a much worse procedure that today's. The camera was on the tiniest stalk so that I barely gagged when it went down my throat and even when he put it up my nose I hardly felt a thing - it just made my eyes water when he took it out.

Ana because my symptoms indicate it could be cancer I had an urgent 'two week wait' appointment, but even then they managed to fit me in after only one week. Not only that, but my appointment (with the actual consultant) was for noon and I was called in bang on time.

grannyactivist I also think that you are doing the right thing. You want your DH's holiday to be as stress free and enjoyable as possible. Good luck.

I agree - wait until you know the results.
It's enough to have the worry for yourself, without having his worry too.
Once you know, one way or another , it's another matter.
Hope the results are as your doctor expects.

I'd do the same, grannyactivist. No point worrying DH unnecessarily - you are so brave to go it alone though!

(Must say you have wonderful medical service wherever you live, I had to wait weeks for an endoscopy and am still not much further on...)

I think I would follow the same course as you grannyactivist. Sometimes a little 'fancy footwork' is necessary to be able to do some good for someone else. My good wishes for a quick resolution to this problem . Enjoy your holiday. How does one cycle home from Norway? Ignore that I'm being silly.
