Hi,
I was recently diagnosed with laryngeal cancer and my surgery is in a couple of weeks. On the CT scan they found a nodule on my lung, and I'm now convinced that, because I already have diagnosed cancer, that this will be cancerous too. At the moment they're not going to act on it, just re-scan in 3 months. I'm not sleeping well and when I do I have nightmares full of struggling upstairs or up a hill carrying a load too heavy for me, I wake feeling exhausted and unequal to the task undergone overnight and the task of getting through the day. I can't focus on work and can't concentrate. I was doing really well before this scan result, mentally and emotionally, but now very little feels important - my priorities have completely shifted and I have very little interest in my job so am unhappy all the day long. I have crying spells and feel overwhelmed a lot of the time.
