Hi everyone.
So I'm back after a 3 month break :) I do have to say that I feel incredible. I feel like I am the closest to beating this demon ever since it all started. Life is wonderful, and I feel 'normal' again. And I simply could not have done it without the advice of some amazing people on here (Fishmanpa, CPE, Kate just to name a few, although this is probably a thread on its own lol).
However, I now feel a bit anxious about an impending CT scan. After my many many illnesses that I was convinced I definitely definitely had, I have found one I genuinely do have. I was rushed into A and E with suspected appendicitis but turned out to be a suspected Kidney Stone.
I now realize the meaning of true pain, and never again will I over exaggerate the pain I am in. Ever! I am due a CT scan ASAP and I'm really nervous. Despite having 10 different cancers and 7 aneurysms, the most I have ever had is an X-ray, and my best friend constantly has allergic reactions to the liquid he drinks before his CT scans. He also kindly told me that there is a chance of a life threatening reaction.
Just need some words of wisdom before my scan so I can stop being so nervous. I have done so so well and I intend on keeping it that way.
