Morning ladies , today is my first three month check since being told I was Ned , I'm in a bit of a state , just want it over with ,I'm convinced its going to be bad news ,not knowing is worse, when I know I will deal with it .I think I feel worse because everything I go to for support is canceled due to coronavirus , despite having a wonderful husband and supportive family its being with others in the same position that helps ,thank goodness for Overcome.

I totally understand your anxiety, but at the end of the day you cant't change the results, dig deep and go find out how you are doing, whatever the results your oncology team are there to help you. If you do need more treatment it will be readily available, hopefully that will not be the case and they will today be telling you, you are still NED. Good Luck, we will all be rooting for you. x
Hi Cheryl , I can do relate to this . I’m feel like that every time I go for my three month check up , pains suddenly appear from nowhere . Good that you were NED three months ago , try to hang on to that .
I know that feeling! It was only just over a week ago. Big girl pants on and deep breaths. I hope your results good . They only go by ca125 and no scans here so got my tummy palpated as I could feel a lump but they think it’s scar tissue.
Normal pre appointment jitters which I think we all get and we all feel for you. I know I still get the jitters and I’m over 5 years since my NED consultation. It’s a new normal state of mind for us, our medics understand our anxiety at these appointments. I hope your appointment goes well lovely, let us know how you get on ❤️XxJane
Five years ,brilliant , mine was good news , ca125 was normal , now just got to cope with social isolation as advised by my oncologist, may murder my husband ,but the thought of 20 years isolation afterwards is restraining me .
Well done on the good news, I’m thrilled for you and understand fully your pre appointment anxiety it’s so difficult isn’t it? It’s always the fear of the unknown.
I hope both you and your hubby survive the isolation unscathed and can then start to make new plans going forwards.
I find its the not knowing that gets to me ,once I know I deal with it .Can't let this get us down ,making plans for the future . Sending hugs back .xx
