Annabelle, HEY! and welcome. Im sorry that you are here, but you are in great company!! You'll get an abundance of support here by many people with very different diagnosis and journeys. Its so incredibly normal to be scared! Its a frightening time. I honestly feel if you had a scan in November it really wouldnt be necessary. Ive had BC twice in 4yrs and my last diagnosis in 2015 I had full body scans the works, 1yr after I had my scans again mammos and u/sounds. So unless I felt something was drastically abnormal they wont do scans regularly. My Oncologist said Id have them yearly, as there is no use having them more regularly. Its natural how you are feeling, have you thought of contacting the Counseling service? I have a Psychologist that I used in 2011 and only touched base with her recently, but honestly it helped immensely. If there are things we can help with ask away, am very sure we can help ease your mind. Big hugs Melinda xo hang in there!
