Oh No (Early scans due to symptoms): First set of six month post op scans were scheduled for March. Moved to this past Wednesday d/t chronic and unexplained back pain and cough. Results coming Monday.

Ug. So sorry to hear. Hopefully can get some pain relief somehow? Had myself a bit of a meltdown this morning - but had to get over it and keep on moving. I am trying to share some feelings with my fiancé but it leaves me feeling like I'm adding to his burden. I will keep you in my thoughts this week and wish you some peace ...

Having one of those days where every few minutes, no matter what I'm doing, the cancer thoughts/fears/questions invade my mind. I am a caregiver, we are less than a week away from lung CT to check for spread of RCC. I'm seeing the pattern of in the days leading up to appointments, etc, my anxiety is huge and I have no focus. Trying very hard to be "there" for my fiancé- interestingly, he seems and I think is, much more calm about it! (for which I am thankful). Also realizing that every ache, sniffle, cough, etc that he has-- my mind immediately goes to "cancer". I'm guessing all of this is "normal"; however, may I say, it stinks!! I am again thankful for this site to vent- and, welcome any suggestions, input, feedback... Many thanks...
