SCANXIETY!!

FF - I’m so pleased you are stable - hope the bloods get to normal soon. Happy birthday for tomorrow if I don’t get a chance to visit the forum :-)))))

Helen - sorry about the new met. I also had new areas/progression after my first chemo and took a dip in how I felt until I got into the new chemo. Glad plan in place :-))

Hugs to all xxxxx

FF …how outrageous to say u r overweight after all the years your body has tolerated chemo, hormones and worst still steroids …it’s got to have a knock on effect …the last thing u need is to live on lettuce and celery too!!
To b honest I fluctuate in weight a lot too …self inflicted …too much chocolate !!

FF, I just wanted to say Happy Birthday! Hope that you are doing something nice today. Your Onc sounds a really lovely woman with real empathy, so many of them don’t seem to have that quality although they are super intelligent. I am sorry that you have a few worries but overall you have done brilliantly on Ibrance. I’m hoping for as good xx

Bumping up for karent and wishing everyone waiting for results all the best.

.Had my MRI This pm. Went ok, but a little nerve wracking, apparently I moved( when I was convinced I wasnt moving) and then the chest straps were too tight and I found it hard to breathe in and hold my breath.

Then afterwards, my arm wouldnt stop bleeding! I never usually have problems!

the radiogs said, interestingly, that there has been a decision this week that from now on, every evening and every Saturday there will be MRI clinics…as the demand is so very high! Well, theres a thing!

All the best for good results Moijan 

I had my MRI 7.pm on a Saturday night so they must be all trying to get everyone in.

 

Good luck to everyone waiting results Love and (((hugs)))  xxx

Hi Marirose and Bonaresis,

 

thanks for your good wishesxx

 

im wondering tho, where they will get all the radiographers from to staff what seems to amount to two extra days per week…yes, Bonareisis…maybe they will be as unhappy as the junior doctors…at presesnt they are volunteers, but what happens at holiday times??

 

love and hugs both of you

Hi ladies, belated birthday wishes to FF and well done on scan results…i know they werent perfect but stable is good. I had no idea you have been living/dealing with this crap for 20+ years (or did i read that wrong). I’m so glad you are more positive about your new onc.

I hate this living in 3 month blocks, from one scan to another and often think it would be nice to have them every 6 months bit i still think 3 is best, i’;m sure i would spend 6 months worry ing instead of 3!!

I have my results on Wednesday…my husband has just clicked on that its results day (the only time he comes with me is for scans and results) and that i amnot expexting good news because of this pain in my neck and now he is ‘on the floor’. I know it is very hard for him but just when i need some support and ‘geeing’ up it seems to be me doing the supporting. I dont tell him things because i know i will have him miserable all the time which puts lots of pressure on me. Fortunately i do have brilliant friends who i can off load on to.

Moijan and anyone else waiting for results…all my love. xx

Dear stresshead 

Good luck with your scan results I will be sending you positive cyber vibes while I am sat having my chemo on Wednesday. I do hope that pain in your kneck will soon sort itself out and give you some relief.

 

Dear Moijan

You didn’t say when you get your results for the MRI but sending you positive cyber vibes 

 

Anyone else awaiting results good luck 

Love and (((hugs))) xxx

Dear Karen

If you have found yourself looking on this thread Good Luck for Thursday will send you cyber positive vibes too.

 

Love and (((hugs)))  xxx

Hi Marirose, Wednesday is D day for me too! Thank youxx

 

Stresshead…I almost never take my other half to the hospital because he lives on his nerves and i find my close friends better…they take notes for me and ask nursey type questions if needed. I once had a minor op and my partner…paced up and down all the time i was in theatre…really, I end up more stressed.

 

he drives like we were on one of those helter skelters and rushes up and down the stairs at home, really not a 

calming sort of guy! So…there you know it all nowxx

 

 Moijanxx

Dear stresshead and Moijan

 

Thinking of you both for good results tomorrow sending good cyber vibes and ((((hugs))))  xxx

Well would you believe it I have just had a phone call for an appointment for CT scan on Saturday  it’s for 4 o’clock how great is that. So hopefully I will get results a week tomorrow.

 

Still sending best wishes to those awaiting results (((hugs)))  xxx

Hi FF

The onc normally requests the scans and then we normally wait for the appointment to arrive in the post. This one is because they had a cancellation and it must be that the onc had decided to ask them to get me  in before my next appointment with him. He really has been great for a stranger to our hospital and he is only a standin for my orginal onc who is away on maternity leave.

 

Love and (((hugs)))  xxx
