ABSOLUTELY - be immensely proud of where you are at & how you feel @Blossom1961! I'd like to see how the new GP would cope given the same diagnosis, surgery & treatment! I reckon she'd probably be a screaming mess! LOL
We will all have ongoing stress issues (maybe that is why my eyes still appear dodgy after the optometrist said they were fine the other week, in comparison to my previous script!! You & I may be twins!) I hope that your strategies help reduce it to a manageable level.
Big pats on the back to you - go & grab a lovely coffee & bickies & have a different type of meltdown in the 35˚ temps out there just now!!
take care xxx
