    Hi Lynn,

    I have been at this 3 years now and the testing is still stressful. I find that I get weirded out starting about 2 weeks before and then talk myself thru what I will do with a good, average and not so good results. I never took it too far but let myself know I could mentally handle any news (I like to go to my appts alone). Then oddly enough my anxiety subsides and I am fairly calm test day.

    You know that you are still NED and that is what you need to concentrate on OR you would be feeling something is not quite right.

    I'll be with you Monday in spirit......keep us posted!!!!

    Hugs, Lisa P.

    Lynn,

    I think it is normal to feel this way just before those three month check-ups. I get this way when my dad's three month scans approach. Sounds like you have been doing so well, I'm sure it will be fine. Keeping you in my prayers for a clean check-up!!!

    Hi Lynn,

    My mom also gets worried around test time. Sounds like from the others this is a very normal reaction. I'm glad to hear it is because I feel the same way when my mom is getting test results.

    I'll be saying prayers for a GREAT check-up. Keep us posted.

    God bless-

    Valerie
