A bit stressed after reading hospital literature

Thought I would read through some of the literature, given to me by the hospital. It has freaked me out a bit to be honest. I read there is no cure for secondary breast icancer, which I didn't realise. As I'm still waiting for ct scan results to see if it has spread, my stress levels have just gone up a notch. I feel like I'm on such a roller coaster at the moment. One minute I feel positive and think I can beat this. Then next I'm just so scared!

  • Anyone know how long ct scans usually take.  Nurse phoned last Thursday to say brain scan was clear (was done at the same time). She said I could phone this week for results of body scan, but not sure how long to leave it before phoning. I don't want to keep pestering them. Now that I know that secondary breast cancer isn't curable, I'm worried sick!!
