BLIND TERROR

I have a full body PETscan at 4 on today.

I cannot deal with the terror; waiting here retching sweating and shaking with fear.

How do you wonderful people out there deal with this?

I just cannot deal with this fear.

SCM, as mentioned before, you need to get some help for coping.

Please contact both your GP and your nurse specialist.

There's nothing to worry about the PET scan procedure. They won't be able to give you any results on the day - it will take time to be processed, reviewed by a radiologist, and then passed back to your multi-disciplinary team to be discussed in their next weekly meeting. It's pretty typical to take around 3 weeks for the results.
