Hello,
my dad has colorectal cancer, he had chemo and radio therapy last year then surgery this year to remove the last of it. We was told straight after surgery they got it all.
a few weeks later he was told he’d have to have preventative chemo which finished 4th October. On 13th October he ended up in a&e with a blood clot on the lung, the doctors didn’t seem worried or keep him in, and he is fine already.
however he had a ct scan booked for 7th November, but they have just called to cancel as they are using the ct scan from a&e on 13th October.
I’ve gone into a spiral of worrying! Is this normal a ct that soon after chemo? Or does that mean they’ve seen something bad already?
Thank you so much!! I think I’m just slightly mental now, I can spiral over the smallest things!
im also pretty sure it was you last year who answered me a few times and helped me calm down

Thank you Susan, I’ve just read your story ️ I can understand worrying spirals, especially as you are the person going through it, I feel a bit of a fraud even coming on here because it’s not happening to me, and my dad is so positive ( he got the call for the cancelled scan and just said brilliant saves another day at the hospital) I went 0-100 in 5 seconds.
It feels like the longest most awful rollercoaster. x
Thank you ️
i think for me through dads treatment I was ok to deal with stuff but the waiting for results etc is the bit I can’t cope with. X
