Cancer Support and Caregivers Who Are Trail Blazers!

I had to put on my big girl pants yesterday and call my oncologist about some bone pain I've been having for about a month. It is so damn hard to make those calls. The anxiety to get ready to even pick up the phone knocks me out. Finally yesterday I took a half of an ativan and then made the call after that kicked in. They sent me to x-ray and I went and had scans done yesterday and now I wait.

There are a lot of things it could be. Just, I can't deal with sorting that out unless I've knocked out the biggest scariest monster which would be a recurrence of the cancer.
