Face to face

I haven't but my heart goes out to you.... update us once you know...

Hi there 

I was all over the place. The worst time was the nights, I’d be awake for ages imagining all sorts then eventually drift off to wake and realise my anxiety would start all over again. 
Once I knew what my treatment plan was then I got my head around it after all I couldn’t get rid of the cancer my medics would sort that. 
I tried my best to eat well exercise a little especially pelvic and I listened to mindfulness or hypnotherapy anything to give me head space 

Good luck with your appointment 

I'm in a bad place .I  hada positive fit test and seen word cancer referral ever since .since then sleep has been non existent, no eating at all , my sleep prior had been not as great but not like ts .I have pains in fingers  u name it  and groin I feel saliva is always there  .I am hoping it's stress some of it but my mind is telling me something else .I'm so scared

Hi Brownowl.

You're perfectly normal to have these thoughts and anxiety. The thing is to concentrate on what's real and true rather than what your imagination tells you could be true.

I found the relaxation exercises in my post at https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer_types/bowel-colon-rectum-cancer-forum/f/general/274907/controlling-anxiety-and-panic really helped me deal with the what ifs and anxiety.

Take a look and I hope it helps.

Steve.
