Hi Annie

I am on three monthly check ups and know what you mean.  Most of the time I get on with my life (I am not a normal worrier) but when it comes to a few days before my appointment I get pains (nothing serious) and am obviously worrying although I think I am coping well my husband says that I go quiet for a couple of days before.

I have a little mantra  " If I worry and everything is fine then I have wasted time and energy worrying, if its not fine then what help has worrying been".  Doesn't always work but it helps me. You need to find what works for you, it could be something practical to take your mind off worrying.

I to have 3 monthly scans.. its funny how you feel before you go.. everything goes through my mind.. I feel every ache and pain and blow it up in my mind as something wrong. .  then you go for results and upto now all ok... so I feel good for a few days then start to feel what ifs again. . So like - river56 - says don't worry.. I know my cancer is in my colon and liver and I can't change that so I just cross my fingers and live my life to the fullest everyday. . Hugs to you x
