acavalier Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Living on the short leash. Is it just me that get's unsettled when the scan time comes along again? I know it isn't. I always say it feels like another round of Russian roulette. A game I do not like to play. I worry mostly about my kids. Even though they are all in their 20's. Do all of us get a little depressed the days before the pet scan? I am almost always positive about it all because I trust in God but I know that sometimes that means not getting the answer we pray for. So I get a little edgy and down. Everyone is good to me though and allows me space to deal with it but stays close enough to help me deal with it. I am blessed. But my scan is tomorrow and I have been feeling dragged out and tired so I am a little nervous this time. Just wanted to say that to someone who I know understands what I mean. Thanks.

mamasbabygirl Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Well, I got very crabby to say the least bc of the stress before mom's scans and I am not even the patient, so I can only imagine how it is for you. Try to hang in there, take a long hot bath and calgon it away for a minute... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ztweb Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 OH my no! You are NOT alone. I have equated this disease like a rollercoaster ride. We were strapped in, without our willingness to be on the ride, and we can never get the seatbelt off. It is a terrible feeling, but being here on the site helps me to see the hope, the possibilities, and the peace that IS possible. We are thinking about you.

Maryanne Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I guess you have not been on this board long enough to know what you are feeling is very normal. Life just keeps going on and we keep doing our everyday things, then all of a sudden it is test time. All worry breaks loose. I am sure yours will be fine. Thinking of you and wishing you luck.

carolhg Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Welcome to the New Normal. We all have our anxieties when it comes to scan time. I know that I do. You be sure that as soon as you get your results you come here and post the GOOD NEWS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamataca Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 We've ALL been there! I laugh at my Gemini personality about this issue. When anyone else posts over scan stress, I give the old, "Don't worry...blah, blah, blah." When my mom has her scans and I have to wait for the results...I'm crazy! But, we come here and lean on each other. Mom's scans are a week away....I'll let you support me then. Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyD Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 You are certainly not the only one. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't get anxious before scans. I know I get very edgy and I can't sleep the night before. Praying for the very best of results. Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelofcharlie20 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I think the nerves are very normal. For my Father's April scan, I was on edge for two weeks with breakdowns and all. Praying for positive results. Shirley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
