Hi Kvogler. I am sorry you are having such a hard time right now. I remember well the fear
and anxiety that goes with this stupid diagnosis. I am so glad to hear you are finished your
chemo, that is a big hurdle to get over. As far as medication to help you through this difficult time of course you should see you doctor in this regard. I would think most
women have taken or are still taking an anti-anxiety pill of some sort. I had taken
Ativan for years and it was really important to have that to take the edge off and
give me a feeling of calm so I could face things in a more relaxed manner. You are right
in the middle of treatment now and this is a when we do need some help in coping
at times. I remember when I was in the early stages of treatment I was also afraid
about anything interfering with treatment or causing recurrence. You are very brave
and have done so much already. You need to give yourself a break and ask for some
help from your family physician or oncologist about the anxiety. They will only
prescribe meds that would definitely not interefere with any other medications you
are taking. I am thinking of you dear because I remember four years ago I was
exactly were you were but it does get way better and each hurdle you get over you
look back and will be very proud of yourself. Lois
