I am sure it will go fine! The anticipation is the worst part. I have had many appt's, where during the build up I am sure of the worst depsite logic. I dread the appt, and countdown to it. And then it passes very uneventfully.

It should like you have had some stressful times lately. This distorts our thinking, and makes threats appear more real and it exagerates the risk of them. I am sure you are fine. Dr's and dentists would notice and would order quick tests. They know what to look for.

my brother sent me that stupid death clock thing & i didnt do it. it's pointless as all it does is put bad thoughts into people's minds. it bears no reality, you remember that. good luck with your apopintment, I hope it goes well. Try not to think the worst & I do appreciate that's not exactly easy. They do say about things going in three's but that doesnt mean it'll be that way for you. Perhaps its going to be good news.

Try not to think about the 'things come in threes' scenario. It's not true. I'm sorry you have had a bad time recently. I'm sure the dentist and doctor would have picked up on anything they were worried about.
See your appt as a positive experience, something which will confirm that you are fine.
Lots of luck with your appt and with everything else x x

Good luck with your appointment, try not to worry too much, like a previous post said the anticipation is sometimes the worst part. I usually worry for ages before any appointment and feel such an idiot afterwards. :hugs:
