@daisydays that sounds like alot for you. Its cruel that we are not goven time to recover from one situation/procedure before the next one comes. Its confronting and as you said so scary. I have bone cancer (sarcoma) ( which had metastasised to my lungs. We were treating well with chemo and my symptoms are inproving. Then a scan finds a tumour on C2 vertebrae which is extremely dangerous from a possible fracture point of view. I now have to start radiation again. I have shut down emotionally now. Its hard to talk about anything with my loved ones. I dont even want to tell them.
I hope you do get that clearer picture of what is ahead for you and that allows your mind to join the dots and move forward. Please let us know how you progress.
In my own way, I will pray for you from Australia.

Hello @tashmoon…
Thank you, yes, I’d prefer to be further out in my recovery as I feel I am still getting my stamina back. I am actively working on it though.
I’m sorry to hear all you have gone through, and are continuing to go through. Sounds difficult and like a lot for you too. I’m sorry you shut down emotionally and that it’s hard to talk to your loved ones. I’m hoping that improves for you.
Meanwhile I’m glad you found Mayo connect and all the way from Australia! It’s helpful beyond words.
Thank you for the well wishes, I wish the best for you too, and success with your upcoming radiation.
Hugs 🤗 positive thoughts
