Anxiety and Upcoming Scan

My scans were good

Doctor said everything looked great. Nothing interesting.

I didn't get the result at the doc visit as I usually do. Sometimes they are busy and the radiologist didn't get a chance to read it by the time I have my appointment. I wanted to wait until I had the report in hand before I shared the news. Just got it today via email (Friday).

Of course I'm happy about it. Thanks everyone.

Terrific news, Todd.  Congratulations!

You guys are so wonderful

Sindy, you always know exactly what to say. Your words brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for your undying support. And thank you for pointing out that I am not the only one at fault for a failed marriage. I literally escaped from him in the middle of the night with only my clothes. I guess that is why I take the blame - forgetting his abusive nature was the reason that I fled!

And Todd and all you others, thank you as well for your care and concern. It certainly is great to have you to share with.

I finally made the jump and booked an appointment with a therapist. My first appointment is tomorrow. I also have a job interview tomorrow morning.

I go to a Uro-oncologist - the best in the province. But I live in Ontario, Canada. We have paid medical care and they have their guidelines. BUT when I go for my next scan I willl talk to him about it. I also might bring my girlfriend instead of my sister. She can be a dog with a bone, while my sister and I are made of the same timid cloth! Note: I was scheduled for an ultrasound for my next scan instead of a CT scan but since there was a lesion found on my liver, they decided to do one more CT scan. This is absurd. Another note: I live in Ontario, one of the richest provinces in Canada - but guess what? I found out that if my cancer spreads, the meds are not covered here. They are in a lot of other provinces, but not Ontario. (thank you Neil for making giving me a heads up). That has upped my anxiety about the cancer coming back. I have decent insurance through work, but I plan to retire in 2 1/2 years....no insurance then. My hubby has insurance through his work, but it is not a very good one. When I went to the first urologist when they first discovered "Arnold" the tumour, he said to me, if it is stage 4, you are done. I was floored and thought he was mistaken, but finding out what our health care is in Ontario, I am beginning to see the validity in his statement.

Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your kindness and support.

Hugs

You are such a doll, Jojo.  I can't imagine anybody wanting to harm one blonde hair on that pretty little head of yours!!  I'm happy you escaped the madness of that bully you now call your ex.  He didn't deserve you. 

Was so glad to hear that you are seeing a new doctor.  It's a step in the right direction.  And what about that job interview?  How'd it go?  Any luck?  Any bozo can see you'd be an asset.

Hope you're having a great day!!
