freakin out

hi there Alison, even though i had my op then chemo, radio etc after, i thinke everyone on here know how you are feeling, and although its not good, its normal, hopefully someone on here has had the op first, and will be able to help you out.  But always remember we are all different, and although we can share the fears, highs and lows, we all handle treatment side effects differently, when i was diagoned my surgeon said to me, you have a life threatning disease, but it doesnt mean you have a death sentence, i cling onto that, but i don't know if the fear ever really leaves us, we just learn through time, to manage it a bit easier. if you have any fears or questions, make sure you write them down, and take them along to your appointments, as no matter how much you think you'll remember to ask, there is so much going on in your brain, half the time you forget until you leave the appointment. And the specialist are the people who have the answers best suited to your situation. Good luck, and please keep comming back, and let us know how you are doing, no question on here is stupid, and there are a load of great people on here, who are or have travelled the road. Good luck regards Moira
