@scoops .... I am sorry to read your news. However look at you taking charge .
You are absolutely right 1 day at a time. This horrible disease throws many curve balls and everybody's scenario is different. The hardest thing is that most of the time we don't look sick, so when all this is going on you may get some comments from friends and family like : oh well at least they got it early, well at least you got the good cancer as its so treatable , or so many other things. That is where it is great to chat on here as I find when the curve balls are thrown at you you can come on here and just read or scroll through and feel like you are not alone. I also find it hard when I share information and the you get people texting asking how were your results, they don't understand that sometimes there are no clear results it just keeps going on for a while.
The waiting is the worst part and I am now 10 months into this and still learning how fast things can change. I have a pet scan tomorrow as my lymph nodes around my lungs are enlarged , I have had two CT scans in the last 6 months and there has been no change which is good in one way but they are still suspicious.
Unless you have it it no one can understand how fast things can turn around .
There are so many people that can offer good advice in times of need so good on you for sharing your information as I know they will help you get through this.
Stay strong it will help you fight this , the waiting is hard but for this test I think the waiting is totally worth it as it is all about leaving no box un ticked. Sending positive thoughts your way xx
