nervous about checkup...updated

A few months ago, I had a cancer scare. I have to go to my hemotologist for a checkup this Tuesday. I am so nervous. I always worry that something was missed. Wish me luck!!!

NEW Re: nervous about checkup...update

Hi ladies!! MY cat scan was normal. None of my non cancerous lymph nodes have grown.
My liver is enlarged but stable. Everything else on the scan came out good.

My blood work was great. Red Blood count is in the normal range, hemoglobin is in the normal range and my platelet level is at 203.0. Back in January it was way below the normal range. The best news was hearing my hemotologist say' I am giving you a break, you don't have to come in once a month, I will see you in three months!!!

Thanks for your well wishes

Thanks again. I went for a second opinion at Sloan Kettering and was said that I was fine but I had an enlarged liver( dad had it too). But I still worry.
