Six month visit with Med Onc

Options
This morning was my six month visit with my MO. I wasn't really nervous until this morning, when I couldn't stop crying. The route to the hospital kicks up my PTSD and that's after beginning to get nervous at home.

Doc walked in told me I looked like a million bucks except for the tears. I've lost 33 pounds since he last saw me. Said everything was good and see me in six months.

Best Christmas present I can imagine.

Hope everyone's visit/mammo/test comes back great as well.

    I get it
    The words are nice to hear. I know how you feel. Even after 2 years here, every six months I have the same fear and stress going to the doctor. PTSD for sure. Hugs

    Congratulations!
    Marge, I do "Congratulate" you on the weight lost. May you never have a recurrence and stay cancer free the rest of your days.

    I hope your next appointment will be easier for you Marge. I'm in my 17th year and there are only a few minutes that make me jittery and that is walking to my car with the results of a test in my hands. They always give it to me in an envelope. I have forced myself to wait until I am alone to open it up.

    Over the years, I have had so many tests and doctors appointment that if I became upset over each one, I would have been a basket case a long time ago. I know that whatever the test results are, I will deal with it and usually I inform my oncologist what I will do, take won't do and etc. Guess that comes with longevity, an attitude! lol

    As you go through the years without a recurrence, each appointment will be easier.

    Best,

    Doris
