I am working full time now after I had my kidney removed in May and I don’t have the energy level I once had. So I look OK on the outside but I tire more easily and I can be an emotional wreck on some days. I have scans this month so I have scanxiety. My friends don’t get it that things are different now after a cancer diagnosis. My life will never be the same. I am getting accustomed to my new normal as it unfolds. It’s like a “re birth” of sorts. Priorities have changed my goal is to simply my life. You need to do whatever works best for you! Cancer patients all need and deserve on going care not just medical but emotional as well. I feel insurance companies should include home health visits for all patients that have gone through treatment especially for people who live alone. One may not have cancer in their body right now but the emotional scars cancer leaves behind deserve attention. My PCP asked me , “ so you’re ok now?” as he was walking out the door. My oncologists never ask how I am dealing with a cancer diagnosis their focus is medical. I am glad this site is here. I find it very helpful. I hope your scans are clean in December Laurie. I love your pic looks like you have a best friend!
