Hi Danielle
Isn't it funny how we worry about making a nuisance of ourselves and how we don't want to cause a fuss or put people out. I was the same but I am slowly changing and realise that I have to speak up about my concerns etc.
I had my oncologist look at a couple of small spots on my neck area the last time I was in. She was very good about it and assured me it was not cancer-related and that I should tell her about any concerns even if I think they sound silly. Very nice of her. But as a double check up I got my GP to check the spots yesterday (I was in there to get a new referral). She agreed that they were nothing but gave me a cream to put on to see if it makes them go away.
Can't help being paranoid about every little spot/blemish/ache/pain now!

PS Leonie - maybe you should try Tai Chi or Qi Gong for a while until you feel ready to take up yoga again?
