I can’t keep it to myself anymore & I have no one to talk to about it except you guys so I’m unloading it here.. but I just made my appointment to start the process to be checked for bladder cancer. & im obviously horrified. For as long as I’ve had my problems, if it’s been cancer the whole time then I fear the absolute worst which is that it’s untreatable now. I can’t leave my babies. I can not do that. They need me. & even without it being worst case scenario, I’m terrified just to hear those words leave their mouth & then explain the “treatment plan” 😰 I know I’m way ahead of myself because for all I know they’re gonna tell me ive got some simple issue that some daily meds or something can help.. but once the seed is planted, it’s hard not to feed into it & continue thinking about it. I’m just freaking out guys & I can’t tell anyone because I’m not gonna lay that on my family or anyone when I don’t know anything. So I just gotta get my thoughts out SOMEWHERE.

I agree with the other ladies about just going to the ER rather than waiting for your appointment. They can start blood work and other testing immediately. At least that way you're not freaking out for the next few weeks. Fingers crossed for you that everything is fine and theres a simple explanation and treatment. 💕

yeah that’s definitely true. Maybe I’ll talk to him tonight & see if we can work something out.

another option is to go in after you put the kids to bed at night. Not ideal bc you'll be there until the middle of the night. But the ER is quiet at that time and you'll be able to get some naps in while there

I completely understand that. I had a ton of health problems after my last baby and was constantly in the hospital. But your health is very important and everything else should be put on the back burner right now. I know working and income is very important but its just one day. You and your husband should make the sacrifice for your health. If you plan to go into the ER very early, like 6 or 7 in the morning, you might even be home by noon

Thank you girl💕🖤 I’m I gonna try to figure out a way to maybe go in before my appointment, it’s just so hard with my husband working all day & having the kids. I won’t take them to the hospital so I’d need a sitter who can be here so they can get them to school or to bed for school if I was back & then my husband would have to miss a day of work which he’s about to be laid off for winter so I’d rather he work & make every dollar he can before he’s done. So it’s hard to go to the ER 😕

That’s definitely heavy shit.
I would go to the ER and let them know your urinating blood and the other symptoms. Bloodwork needs to be done ASAP. My husband has blood cancer and the symptom that finally sent him into the ER was bleeding. Stressing doesn’t change anything except your mentality. 💓 Everyday is a gift and anyone of us could go at anytime. You never know. Try to stay positive. My inbox is open if you need a ear.

@coffeebean, that’s what held my husband back. He’s already in a wheelchair and we have 5 kids at home still. At the time my 4th was my youngest at 2 months old...
His white blood count was over 300,000 which they thought was a malfunction. If he didn’t go he would have ended up having a heart attack or stroke and died. Please consider getting in sooner.. Time truly is of the essence.

Thank you so much🖤💕 I appreciate you & your advice!! & I have thought about going to the hospital but it’s hard with the kids & my husband working to be able to actually go. So a doctors appt was the next best thing 😕
