Hi @Hendrix - so great you had good news. I'm so way behind you with treatment - haven't even had my mastectomy yet (7 April) but I SO understand scanxiety! I have not shed one tear about my diagnosis (in January) as I'm very pragmatic and have just let life go on while I'm waiting for my op BUT I will never forget waiting for those staging scan results - I reached for those Kalma tablets straight away - to help me sleep, to help me in the waiting room - my whole being was totally overtaken with 'what ifs' - thankfully it was all OK - in fact the only time I've burst into tears is when I opened the results in the car and saw that it was all OK - but I know there are many scans coming up in my future. The waiting is the absolute pits.
