Hello, thank you for sharing your experiences, and I do hope you continue to feel better soon. It is natural to have the anxiety, as I'm sure just about everyone going through a cancer diagnosis and treatment must feel very scared and confused. It's good that you haven't had too many issues, and I think very helpful that we all share what we are dealing with. Helping each other also helps ourselves to heal in a more positive way. I do wish you a very happy and healthier New Year, and may we all have peace on earth. Please check in from time to time and let all of us know how you are doing. I will do the same. Take care.
