Hello TriciaH

I'm sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis. Undoubtedly it will have been a very difficult time for you both. 

It sounds from your post as if you're currently experiencing what many people affected by cancer would call "scanxiety" and I promise that it's much more common than people would think. It's natural that you're feeling worried about what your husband's upcoming scan results may say. Try to hold on to the positive things that you do know rather than thinking about all the other possibilities. 

It also often helps to talk to someone at times like this and I'd encourage you to give our team of nurses a call. I know they'll be happy to talk things through with you and offer any advice, information, and support that they can to help you through this coming period of uncertainty. If you'd like to talk with them they're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. 

Keep in touch Tricia. Let us know how you're both doing. 

Best wishes, 
Jenn
