thanks for all your comments - they certainly helped and i feel much better about things. looking back i had a very very wobbly week and i am sure it was triggered by 2 things.
Firstly i had a dodgy looking mole which i kept staring at convincing myself it was something nasty and rather showing it to the doctor (took me 2 months to get to him!) i just kept trying to push it to the back of my mind which kind of just festered there... when i finally went to have it checked out it was a harmless cyst and a whole weight lifted off my shoulders!
Then secondly i surfed on the internet and saw some reoccurance stats on the cancer i had had which didn't look too favourable (50%)...
so big lesson for me, and my top tips for staying positive are- go to the doc and no surfing on sites as we have individual stories....
i am still planning on speaking with the Doc next week as i think counselling is an excellant idea.
hope this email finds you all well

Hi there
I am new to this Forum but would like to say Hello!
I have been out of cancer treatment now for 4.5 years (yah) and on the whole am very happy. i have a lovely husband and 2 gorgeous (but loud!) little babies aged 2.5 year and 15 weeks.
I try not to think about the cancer coming back and get on with life - however in the past few days i have been really struggling with it, especially thinking what would happen to my babies if things took a turn for the worst. i am not sure what has triggered as my 6 month check-ups have been fine. i think life is just so good right now and just want it to stay that way. maybe it's my post preganncy hormones!!
i am just intersted if anyone else gets 'disaster flashes' occassionally and how best you handle it.
