The waiting is dreadful , I get very anxious , I'm on fourth line so lots of experience. When waiting for results I think about the worst outcome ,then tell myself there will be a plan for me and prepare myself for it , , then I think of best outcome and plan how to celebrate , I do as much as I can to keep busy , and consciously try to push it to the back of my mind. Wishing your mum well .xx

Can't be sure but I'd say caelyx, I had six months on watch and wait after six cycles of caelex , I'm now on Gemcitabine.xx
