Scared

I have an appointment with the oncologist tomorrow after being diagnosed with breast cancer cells in a lymph node. My original cancer was almost 22 years ago. 

I am so scared and dreading the worst. I can't sleep or stop crying. I am convinced it is everywhere. How on earth do people cope with secondary disease and all its implications?

I just want to scream my head off.
