I have a 3 month PET scan Tues and appointments all day Wed. Doing good up till now. Getting so scared, nervous. Psyching myself up for the possibility of a neck dissection but other than that I think its a little PTSD about going back to the hospital I had all my treatments at and remembering. I made it through ok. Chemo was OK. Rads was ok and I conquered the mask. Guess I have scananxiety and I do have leftover Ativan. Sigh. Trying to eat more too thank you ChristineB! I want to get this damn tube out.
