What you are going through is HIGH ANXIETY type stuff and perhaps you either need to be candid with your general practitioner or you need a different G.P.!!! I would think some anti anxiety meds would benefit you greatly with what you have gone through. Wow. Over here in "the colonies", as well as in the U.S., prescription of anti-anxiety meds is pretty routine with cancer patients. Maybe you need to outright ASK.
Good luck.
