Petried for tomorrow

[TracyL]

Hi guys

Well i'm sitting here having kittens :ohmy:. I am having my ct scan of my head tomorrow and am so scared they'll find something wrong. I pestered my doctor to get one because I had been experiencing terrible depersonality and feelings of not being with it and told her i was petried it was a tumor or something. She said that because she knows how i worry that the only way to get peace of mind was to have the scan :blush:. I put it off but then decided I would have it and booked it and they got me in for tomorrow. Now i'm really scared. I can feel my anxiety kicking in and i've started to feel shaky :unsure:. Any advice as to how i can calm down would be most appreciated.

thanks guys
Tracy

Sounds as though you need to distract yourself - TV, loud music, puzzles - anything that will work. And while you're having the scan, it doesn't last long; just try and switch off from what's going on. You might even go to sleep!

Hi Tracy.
Good luck with your scan. I'm sure you will be fine, and when they give you the all clear, you'll be over the moon :yesyes::yesyes: Lots of hugs, Katie :hugs:

Hi Guys

Well I've had the scan. It only took afew minutes and the lady was so nice to me. :). I did start to panic briefly because my eyes were covered for their protection but i hate not being able to open my eyes. However it was all over in only a few minutes so that was great and they're not scary at all. Now i just have to wait for the results and hope all is well :blush:

Thanks guys
Tracy
