jsorlean,I can relate to your fear. Two days ago I found myself in an emergency room because my blood pressure spiked. A few days earlier my cardiologist recommended I double my dosage of a beta-blocker I am on. It is a possible way of increasing my heart's ejection fraction, the percentage of blood the left ventrical squeezes. I felt very dizzy and decided after speaking with my pharmacist to cut back to the original dosage. In doing so, I missed the evening time dosage my body grew used to getting. The emergency room doctor explained that missing that time slot could cause a spike in blood pressure. Was I scared! My blood pressure is now normal. My wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and having the BRCA gene mutation 6 years ago. She had a double mastectomy and chemo. She is well. All lab tests that have been taken have had good outcomes. I am scared every time she has them. A nutritionist that I consult with recommended the book "Radical Remissions". Friends who were diagnosed with cancer found this book very valuable. Best wishes to you. Your courage in the face of fear is a gift to us all.

ANNET,A higher power has been with you, Shania! And that loving force will stay by your side for this next testing. I hope you have family and or friends close to you that will continue to support you. I had a heart attack, cancer and 10 weeks ago, open heart surgery ( all this in 3 years) so I know the feeling of fear. However, I also realize that I have no control over some things that happen in my life. They could be trials I have had to deal with to teach me a better way to live. Keep strong and know that there is something better after all is done. Remember the Divine and forget, let go of, everything else!

Shanla,THANK YOU, EVERYONE! ♥ @purple heart ... I, actually, already share 'My Positive Thought For Today' postings, between my FaceBook pages, on my Instagram account, and, even, have a Board, specifically, for Breast Cancer, among my Pinterest Boards. It does help; however, I never forget. Thanks for the suggestion, anyway. P.S. I forgot to mention that just, recently, I had another scare concerning my heart. I had an emergency angioplasty on May 5, 2016 ... where I received two stents. I just feel like I inherited all of the bad genes from both of my parents, and ancestors. However, to be fair, the doctors did test, my genes, to see if I carried a family gene for the Cancer, and stated that my Cancer was NOT inherited. So, I believe that it was because of all of the steroids, and meds, that they had put me on ... especially, when I had the autoimmune disease. On some of the bottles, Cancer was written, in the descriptions, as one of the side effects, of taking them.

Bevrly,Sorry to hear about all of your problems. Just remember God is there for you and has plans for you and is keeping you around for a purpose. I have been lucky in life and do have a few medical problems but at 85 I guess that is expected. My husband had a stroke in 1990 and about 12 years later he got alzheimers an Lewy Body Dementia so we had a few bad years. He passed away in 2009 and life is lonely but I still belong to the Stroke Support Group and am a Stroke Peer Visitor. Try not to worry about the future and live one day at a time. God is watching out for you.
