How to settle nerves before appointment

I had a laparoscopy and a cyst removal.  My ca125 was 135 and 3 weeks later ca125 was 167. 

I got a call from a consultant to have a meeting on Wednesday to discuss results an plan for treatment moving forward. Also said I need to take someone along.

I have had a gut feeling it is cancer all along but now I am so scared to hear the words from the consultant.  

How did everyone manage emotions before hearing it being said ?

  • Hello. I don’t really have anything to offer other than to say I couldn’t read your post and not send you some virtual hugs. I haven’t been in your situation. I am still waiting my laparoscopy. I do believe that your gut feeling is something to trust. It sounds very much like you are already preparing to hear those words come from the consultant. I think if this were me, I would spend tomorrow writing down the questions you want to have answers to so you have them ready, and also a day to be kind to yourself. 
    do you have someone to come with you?
    really hoping yoir appointment goes well.
    keep in touch, this too shall pass x
