Struggling a bit

Hi Debh1 I’m at the same stage as you and am feeling anxious about my two year results. I was told that if the cancer is going to return it’s probably going to do so within the first two years after treatment so these results are a big event. I had counselling last year with an oncological counsellor and am trying to practice calming techniques I learned.  Distraction is a good one for me but you can’t keep busy all the time. I’ve been impatient and snappy for the last week or so to the point where I’m not keen on speaking to people at the moment as they keep saying stupid things like ‘you’ll be fine don’t worry about it’ and so on. My bones ache too and my legs seem to get tired very easily. I’m not sure though whether the aching bones could be due to the menopause rather than an effect of the radiotherapy. I’m in Citalopram and am taking Propanolol again which helps keep the anxiety under control. I’d definitely have a chat with your GP. Bev.
