Hi Traciej.

That's good news. At least you'll get some answers hopefully.  I was hoping to get a few days of bot havingvto think about it. A call yesterday to book a covid test 3 days before surgery....... two more calls today. Great support network falling into place. Bit it would be nice just to have a couple of days for me.....so I can get my head in the right place. Anxiety level is ok one minute and nudging the stratosphere the next. How I'm going to be Sunday and Monday (8th&9th) is anyones guess. I might ask if theres something They can give me ti calm the old nerves

Hi whatsnext, 

Yes I'm relieved somewhat. Least I now know when I'm going. Was beginning to think I'd been forgotten  

I know what you mean, it would of been nice for you to have some 'me' time, lord knows you need it but I guess where this is concerned they're not going to hang around. Not long to go though now for you

Had a call this morning from the breast cancer councillor  

Lovely lady.  Has suggested yoga breathing exercises. " safe space" imagine being in a happy place....picture it...colour of the sky etc etc. Going to start practising today  . She also suggested that my doctor might be able to prescribe something to help with my stratospheric anxiety levels. Waiting for prescription as I type. Short term hit as it can be addictive. I'll take anything at the mo just so I can relax.

Finding myself watching old episodes of The Bill until the early hours just so I am so knackered I go to sleep as soon as my head hits the pillow. Otherwise the little grey cells go into overdrive...and I start thinking about our children and grandchildren that we havent seen since last December.  

Trying to keep occupied.  Bedroom now looks like a bomb site.got a heap of underwired  bras that will probably go to a charity overseas.

Just found some more of dads things....cue more tears....... 

Hells Teeth!! 

Hi whatsnext, 

Anything that will relax you is definitely worth a try, keeping yourself busy is always good too, but you also need to try and relax. I'm starting to get anxious about my appointment now

Aw that sounds good advice but it must be so hard to make your mind focus on anything else! Friends is my go to programme watched all the episodes so many times just helps my mind relax x

The help is there Traciej. I just needed the courage to ask for it

Hey Traciej

All be done in an hour...hopefully.  what times your appt?.

Let us know how you get on. 

I'm trying to get the dosage on these tablets right. Took 1.5yesterday and was knocked out for a couple of hours last evening. 

So only too one today.  Snuggled down on the sofa to watch reach for the sky.....saw the inside of my eyelids for 3 hours!!! Really knocked me off my perch. Gotta call the docs tomorrow. Took a chunk out of my life toe that's bloody sore. Ans the sciatica gas kicked in    it did I mention that?

Good luck for tomorrow.  Will be thinking about you
