So I know checking is bad, but hard not to when my problem is swelling in my face which I see every day! However the swelling is quite subtle so I am spending huge amounts of time staring at myself in the mirror, feeling my face with my hands to see where the swelling is and taking selfies of my face (it looks way worse in photographs than in real life). So I have decided that until my ultrasound appointment, no more selfies and no more staring in the mirror. I hope I can manage it and I hope it helps my anxiety because right now I am obsessed, can't think of anything but the cancer diagnosis that I am sure I am going to get; I'm not even sleeping :(
