scan anxiety

I have my 3 month scans coming up on Tuesday.  I keep telling myself not to worry but I always manage to get even more anxiety doing that.  So far I have had stable metastatic BC and hope for the same.  It's been a year since I was diagnosed and I still can't get used to the idea that I this is my new reality. Wish there was an anxiety OFF switch that I could activate for my life. Anne58

    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
