Anxiety again

Hi everyone. I have been following the wise words of everyone for some time and have benefited from your knowledge and experience this has been very helpful. I was diagnosed with carcinosarcoma stage 3c in 2017. I decided against surgery as the surgeon didn't think he would be able to remove it all and I may finish up worse off. I had carbo/paxol for 18 weeks the last exactly a year ago today. Since then I have had no treatment, though have had 3 monthly scans. Each scan has shown the cancer to be stable. Tomorrow is my next scan and although I know it's silly I have bad feeling about it. I have been having a pain in my right side and I know my luck can't hold indefinitely. Had any one else with this kind of cancer had long periods of it remaining stable.

Anne

Wish you all the best . Maybe take a look at CBD oil. Can help with anxiety. Green Goddess Tonic tablets worked for me when my mum was going through treatment and I was stressed. Worth a look on line . Best wishes x

Dear Anne,

We all worry all the time, because none of us are ever really out of the woods.

It will be good to have this scan report and to know that you are still clear, but you still have to wait for it, which is always hard.

Wishing you a clear scan and peace of mind.

I don’t have that type but I did have a pain in my side for 2 months but a scan last week showed NED. So don’t jump to conclusions! Maybe it’s not cancer. Crossing my fingers for you!

Worry is tough. I can only recommend lots of distractions. That’s what works best for me.

The very best of luck! 🤗
