Hi Michelle:

Welcome to OCF. Its a wonderful place to get tons of info not just on the forum but also on the main site. You will get lots of support here from people who have been there and gone thru what you are dealing with.

Anticipation is always difficult. I understand how upsetting this is to you but worrying isnt going to help you feel better. The stress can make you feel worse. Try to relax and tomorrow is another day, talk to the doc about this.

Best of luck.
