    Scanxiety is
    Something we all get to some degree. I think if you didn't get nervous a little I'd be more concerned.
    Hope things go well Tom.

    I have a CT Scan tomorrow, get results the following week. It usually doesn't get to me until the night before I get results. I used to worry from the day of the scan until the results but after time I got more used to it.

    Good luck...
    Ah, cancer... it really is an emotional bully, isn't it. I will be thinking of you and praying for the best. When I have scans I try to keep myself very, very busy but at night, those feelings of fear hit hard. Best wishes for a great scan, my friend.

    Big hug!
