Constant feeling of fear since treatment finished

Hello Crazychic

A warm welcome to the forum and well done in getting through it all.  What you are experiencing - I won't describe it as normal because it isn't, but it is the 'norm' for a many of us after a cancer diagnosis.  We think we will get back to our carefree pre-cancer days but the trauma of the diagnosis and treatment can stay with us for a long time afterwards.

The scanxiety is very real for all of us and never really completely goes, even after many clear scans.  Self-confidence in your body takes a real blow and the worry is always there. 

And three weeks is such early days for you, I was still suffering extreme fatigue a couple of months down the line so you need to be really kind to yourself and let your body recover.

You have found the forum and everyone here is really helpful and empathetic so if you ever need to talk and share you concerns, please just post.  Some members have had therapy afterwards to come to terms with what has happened, if there is a Maggie's near you the staff are all cancer professionals and are very understanding of what a cancer patient goes through both physically and mentally.

Big hug
