Sitting here feeling so anxious and sick with worry, I have my first appointment tomorrow with onc after finishing treatment in September. Bloods done Monday including ca125, it feels like the waiting game all over again.

I know this is normal but was hoping I would not feel like this, last night heard a song on the radio,[ climb every mountain] from The Sound Of Music and just sobbed.

Awww Ellsey, the waiting for results is awful. I had scan results a couple of weeks ago . I'm fine now until I get in the consulting room by which time every time my husband opens his mouth I rip into him lol. He's used to it, you'd think he'd learn just to sit quietly instead of saying stupid things like 'It'll be fine'! . Anyway I'm sending you a big hug and best wishes for tomorrow. Please let us know how you get on. xx Kathy xx

Waiting does makes us feel anxious but I try and tell myself that the results are already decided and no amount of worrying is going to change it.

My best wishes for a good result. If you feel up to it, have a glass of wine and an early night.

Good luck! Helen

Hi Ellsey. I know what you mean. Had my scan this Tuesday and get results 11th November. I just keep telling myself I can't change the results so no point worrying at the moment. Easier said than done. I hope you have good results tomorrow. Everything is crossed for you.🌻🍀

That horrid Scanxiety feeling - even if no scan is done!!! You want to be positive and hopeful however a little part of your mind seems to be able to shout louder than the larger rational part doesn't it!?! I hope you have a good meeting and good results and let us know how it goes please. We are all rooting for you Ellsey. Sending big hugs for you

Take care

So many of us feel exactly the same no matter how many times you tell yourself not to worry... it will be fine.,. I can't change things.... you still build yourself up into a big ball of nerves ... I went last week for my results I put on a sparkly dress as outward show of being positive and the Ned was given to me so matter of fact by my onc whilst staring at computer screen while I thought she was looking up my neuropathy ... she has just said ur ct is clear... didn't think I heard right such massive news for me didn't seem so to my onc... I just wish you all the best ellsey your not on your own ... big hugs 🤗

Oh you made me smile, Shellygirl, with your sparkly dress and your underwhelmed onc. This would make a lovely cartoon :)

Ellsey - all the best for tomorrow. The thing is to sing 'Climb every Mountain' and stand tall whatever.

Nothing like an oncology appointment for sending us into a major wobble I find. Brings back all the horror of diagnosis and adds an extra dose of anxiety. This week my CNS (who I haven't seen for a year) sat in on my onc meeting...I went into melt down thinking this must be bad news but she was just babysitting the registrar.

I hope your appointment goes well ... take care Lx

Just want to wish you the best for Thursday, it is an anxious time no doubt about that but I really hope all will go well.

Big hugs I was like that at the beginning of September had my CT scan then a week later had my bloods done got the results on the same day not to bad for waiting. I go back on the 6th December for my next results I'm am starting to think about it again, I suppose we will be like this and it will be normal for us to worry and feel sick hope all goes well keep positive take care.
