I am sorry you have to go by yourself for the scan tomorrow. I have also gone alone, although most of the time my husband goes with me. Even though you are still alone for the test, it is nice to know someone is out there waiting for you. I will be sending prayers for you tomorrow for a great scan. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Hi Stage 1,

I'm having one tomorrow too ........ so we're in this together. This is not my first time, by any means. So, let me assure you, you will be fine, I promise. The scan is the easy part. It's waiting for results that sucks. But I'm praying really, really hard for clean scans for both of us ...... and for anyone else that's having scans tomorrow.

It will be ok, trust me.

Love,
Cheryl

Stage 1,
I will be there with you in spirit, just squeeze my hand tight. I will be there....
I will Pray for a great scan! You know all of us will be there and here to hear how it went!

God Bless, Holly

Scanxiety for many this week. Extra prayers for all. And a little something extra-"Oh mighty scan God, let all scans show positive results!"
Take care, JC

Must be that time, it seems that everyone I know has a scan coming up. We're going to have to send a lot of collective positive energy out there...here's some coming your way. Linnea

Hi Stage I - I hope all went well yesterday during your scan. I will pray that God gives you peace as you wait for the results and they are clear. I used to worry so much from scan to scan, and then I realized that there was nothing I could do to change the results - all I was doing was ruining the days I spent waiting. I know these will get less stressful for you over time. God bless you! Pat

Stage1,

Good luck! I will be there too for you! I know it will be fine! Do you get results the same day? Phil has his then his appt follows. So..the scan isn't scary it's the appt. You know what I mean...I remember his 6 month scan and how nervous we were. Then it was over and everything was good again for 3 months. I wish EVERYONE good results on their scans this week. Kathy

Saying a prayer for strength tomorrow - I wish I could be there phsyically with you but with be there spiritually there for you my dear.

Becky

Dear Stage I and Cheryl,
Hope all went perfectly for you both - sorry I missed this post till now, so wherever you are, I am saying a huge prayer all is well. I think we should all squeeze Holly's hand when things get tough - Thanks Holly!
Blessings to us all,
Peg

Praying for a GREAT scan !! Yep, lots of scans this month including mine. We're going to take some GREAT PICTURES!!

Love to all,
Marylou

keeping all of you in my prayers for clean scans, and for peace as you wait for the results.

god bless,
deb

I hope you get your results ASAP and that they are NED...you've been so great supporting people here...I'm thinking of you all the time and sending positive thoughts...Cindi

You won't be alone because I also am going with you and Cheryl tomorrow, it is kind of hard being in 2 places at the same time, but I am gonna do it. So smile when you see me and I will know who you are. Don't be afraid, take an ativan if you have one, it takes the edge off.
I will be praying for you to have no fear, some anxiety is okay, but not too much, get some sleep tonight.
God bless Sandy

How did it go? I missed the initial post but am praying now!
Cathy

Stage 1....My prayers are with you for clean results. Pat-M said " there is nothing I can do to change the results.". We need to toss it to the Universe and ask God for his Mercy. This must be National Scan Week as I noticed that a lot of us are/were scheduled for this week. I went for a Scan yesterday, as well. I will not receive the results until November 6th. I go to Scans by myself as my husband has Alzheimers.....Viki

Good Luck. I actually prefer to go alone and tell my husband to stay home when I have scans. I guess I don't feel alone but enjoy the quiet prior to my scan and after.

I posted late then screwed it up.I am holding your hand till results in in our virtual world.AndiB

May God be your co-pilot and flies you to a good report!

God Bless you on your scan It is so scarry to go alone but the worst part is when you get the results thats when i never go alone someone is always with me .So may you have strength and courage ........I go For Mine on monday
GOOD LUCK HOPE ALL GOES WELL
