Can't sleep before PET scan - how to cope with anxiety and fear?

Trina , first it’s ok to be scared BUT I have to say starting today! Right now! I want you to start being positive and to be strong and be stronger than you have ever been before in your life. C’mon! You can do it definitely!!!!!! Have faith in God , the doctors, the nurses, the medicines and above all YOU!!! Beating cancer takes everything you can imagine I had 20 treatments and fine foot pool ally I got got my last chemotherapy treatment now I’m on immunotherapy now I had 5 treatments . I’m not going to let this bum me out! I want you to have the same energy can you do this??? Let me hear ya girl!!!

Hello Trina, thoughts are with you, stay positive! 🙏

Pre-scan anxiety is completely understandable, and many people in this community experience similar feelings before important medical appointments. Try some gentle breathing exercises, listen to calming music, or do light stretching to help ease both the anxiety and help your body relax enough for some rest before your scan.

William mott thanks for your comment..im still waiting for the journey I have to face ..im scared to know if im in stage 4

Hope all goes well for you. Feeling scared about the unknown is normal.

I can definitely relate to the stress of scan day. I try to remind myself that knowledge is power. The unknown is often scarier than the known. I pray and pray for strength and healing. I will pray for you.💜🙏🏽💜
