Thank you for opening this discussion! The fear of remission is something that isn't talked about enough and I am sure there are others who relate to your condition.
How is your battle with breast cancer going? Were you able to beat it? Did you have any fears of remission? How did you cope with them?

Take care,

Hi Sara,
You are doing great! I feel that it is common to be concerned about a reoccurrence. I think about it every time I find a bump on me anywhere. But I feel the same way as you. I worry constantly about a recurrence.

Symptoms and complications of breast cancer
What was your age and what initial symptoms did you experience at onset?
positive
@Courtney_J I am getting very nervous and scared because the surgery is July 13, 2021. My parents both died this year so I dont have them to talk to. My mom died on Feb 16, 2021 with a sickness she was suffering for 18 months so i was dealing with that for the last months and then my dad had a major stroke 3 weeks after my mom passed away and he could no longer go back to his assistance living so we had to find a nursing home. We found one he was only in there 3 weeks and then he passed away on May 6, 2021. Right after all that I was diagnosed with cancer so I have been on a train that is non-stop. I feel like I am so tried out and I dont have much energy left. My sisters are not helpful they keep telling me just pray. They both got to take 2 weeks vacation after my mom and dad passed away. I have not even had time to take a breather I am just on the train of bad luck. That is how I am feeling.

Hey everyone,
I don't know why but a sudden fear of remission has taken a hold of me over the last couple of months and it has disturbed my frame of thought. I am normally very calm and composed but I cannot seem to get it out of my mind and it has affected my day to day life as well. For context, I was declared cancer free 2 years ago. Is anyone else experiencing something like this or had experienced for that matter? My husband tells me that maybe I am a bit too worried but am I?
Would appreciate some thoughts
Sara
