Yes it is very frustrating and the worst month of fright for me . The only explanation I can come up with after doing a little research on the net is, if they make light of a situation, patients may shrug it off and not get their proper treatment which sets the doctor up for malpractice. We are not talking about patients who take their health seriously but I'm sure a lot more would put things off and that could be dangerous for them. But I agree could we get a little better understanding from the diagnostic test. My MRI basically said 50/50 adenoma vs adeno carcinoma. Without my faith that Gods hand was on my life, I would have been an emotional wreck. Best of health to you.
Great news! Isn't it frustrating how they cannot give a better diagnosis prior to surgery and instead give you the biggest scare of your life? Been there. I am glad it is benign and that the surgery is behind you now.
