You are normal!!!!!!!!!!I think once the safety of treatment is over,and we are on our own again,we tend to let little negative thoughts creep in!Lately I have had a sore back(oh no it's in my bones!!) and I did have an upset stomach for a few days( stomach!!!) but of course I knew deep down that I had been bending over too much ,and that is what gave me a sore back,and all our kids have been sick with a virus and I think I had a touch of that too!!! Even though I knew it was nothing,my mind still went there.The further away we get from treatment,I think we start to put it in the very back of our minds.For me,if have my 6 monthly checkup,and in the meantime try to be aware of any 'significant' changes,well then I think I will do just fine.Keep busy,eat well and exercise ,and you will be the picture of health just like most of us are.Take care and stay in touch.xoxRobyn
