Why is my anxiety level so high with two year check?

Hi,i know how you feel,I had my 3rd  routine yearly  mammogram 2weeks ago really anxious  until I got my results

Don't think you ever stop worrying 

Feeling really low,, and alone. 

You're not alone,we re all here for one another

I overthink too much,which i know is not good

I'm sure all will be good tomorrow

I'm glad this is normal. Family tell me im over reacting as im cured lol.

I over think ever pain lol. My relationship has suffered and I hate the anxiety I feel xx

Yes,think once you've had a cancer diagnosis it's not easy to forget what you've been through

I had a therapeutic mammoplasty,lymph node clearance,and radiotherapy 

• I worry every year when my letter for a mammogram arrives

Hi Michelle123 , I have found over the years (nearly 7 since diagnosis) that the best support comes from those who’ve had cancer themselves. Friends and family generally don’t really get it - they mostly think it’s all done and dusted. I have felt anxious before every annual mammogram and this is my first summer without one as I’ve been ‘discharged’. I’m still on Anastrozole though till December. Perversely, I’m now feeling anxious because I’m not being monitored anymore!! It really feels like you can’t win! 
Please do reach out here as you are absolutely not alone. People here do get it, in fact there’s a term used here - scanxiety. 
There’s also a really useful article by Dr Peter Harvey called something like When the treatment finishes… I can’t post links but if you do a search it should come up. 
Good luck for today, we will all be with you in spirit. Love and hugs, HFxx

And just to add, you did ask when does the anxiety mellow. I can’t say when but mine is definitely more ‘in the background’ than it was. For me I think it’s been similar to grief; it never disappears altogether but becomes less acute and less ‘always present’ as time passes. Xxx.
