Possible lung mets shock

Thinking of you, hoping for good result.

Dear @jamavon
Just sending you a virtual hug and best wishes

@jamavon just thinking of you and hoping you are ok. 

Bugger @jamavon. I hope your 2nd opinions gives you reassurance .... a BC buddy has lung spots (she had a small tumour removed 2 years ago) and whilst not 100% is going ‘ok’ just now.  

There is a newish drug called keytruda that apparently works well on lungs that was mentioned with another buddy’s condition  .... maybe mention it? 

Yep, take one day at a time, scream, shout, howl if it helps relieve the pressure of the waiting .... sleeping is good!! 

Take care xxx Lean on us.  xx

Thank you all for the support.....Getting through one day at a time....I am reaching out to a couple of places for a second opinion. With such a rare cancer I want the best possible care I can get. 

My issue is sleeping too much lol and wanting to avoid work ( writing school report comments at the moment ) 

Sending hugs for a positive outcome.

@Dory65 I’ve had a few kids books read to me too at 3am by Insight Timer. My fave was Cinderella 😄. Anything that works 👌🏻

This must be a horrible shock @jamavon. Fingers and everything crossed for you - it might not be as bad as you fear. Can you see your GP for something to help you sleep or calm you, if your mind is racing? Avoid alcohol - it just makes things worse. Keep eating well and drink lots of water...Anything that brings you into the present moment can help ease the anxiety. Google "bubble breathing mindfulness" exercises. I also like Insight Timer. I used it recently when I couldn't sleep. It calmed me down - actually I really enjoyed having The Velveteen Rabbit read to me at 3 a.m.  :)

Waiting for the PET and then the results is awful. You will get through but it’s hard and I just wanted to send a warm hug xx
