Dear @wannawoma the anxiety is a constant as soon as anything changes - we all feel this - talk to your oncologist about your concerns rather than bottle it up as our imaginations can run riot. A wise woman on here counselled me to wait a couple of weeks before doing so . What frustrates the heck out of me is there is little written about the long term side effects of our treatment and they exist a plenty - eg I had chest pains 6 months after radiotherapy and raced into Casualty thinking the worst and my ECG was fine. But on the other hand it may be something so follow it through for your sanity and perhaps expeditious treatment if it is a problem.One of the ladies put something up about scan anxiety and might be worth putting it up again here.
I’m not sure if I’ve supplied sane words but what you are feeling is what we all do - you are most definitely not alone.Plus if things worry us we get them checked out and if things need to be done we get them done .We are here on this blog standing with you - keep blogging we get it.
