Re: Very scared and trying to breath

Hi Linn65, I know how scary every ache and pain is. Cancer never used to enter my mind when I wasn't feeling well or had pain but now it's the first thing that comes to mind. I'm glad you have a doctor's appt today. Hopefully he will ease your mind a bit. Sending good thoughts to you. Cathy
