Anxiety over a recurrence in the future

Posted by rparsons @rparsons, Jan 25 9:46am

Hi I am post radiation & hormone therapy.
During this whole process I developed this
anxiety. Questioning myself on my treatment option I picked & recurrences in the future. I know it’s not logical & we don’t have crystal balls. Can anyone relate & how were you able to overcome it. I never suffered from anxiety before. I do attribute some of it to Elagard. We know it messes with our hormones.
Thank-You

Join the club , I don’t think you’d be normal if you didn’t wonder if you made the right decision. I got my second hormone shot yesterday after going thru surgery and radiation. Today I’m having a big downer day mad at myself for getting this second shot and made the mistake of watching a Dr on the internet today who implied anyone close to 80 yrs old I’m 78 should think twice and get several opinions before doing anything. Today I feel like I fucked up giving up
Quality of life which I miss every day, Hopefully my attitude will change when I look into Trimex injection next month, good luck , staying positive isn’t always easy and the Lupron doesn’t help
