(34,069 posts)The last week has been rough, emotionally.
I'm 1 year past diagnosis (sugeries 11/30, 12/15, and 12/29 last year). We had planned to spend Christmas with my parents this year (all 5 of us vaccinated, boosted, and careful about exposure). I also have to have scans every 3 months to check for metastasis.
Unfortunately, I came down with what is probably the flu a week ago today (not COVID- per a PCR test at the peak of symptoms) so I had to cancel both Christmas and the scans (3 mo oncology check-up and 1-year surgery check-up). Due to a poopy employer, I'm retiring with virtually no notice and am out health insurance as of 1/1 - and won't necessarily have Medicare util 2/1. I managed to get the scans rescheduled on Tuesday. But if there's anything growing in my lungs I may have to fight Medicare for the coverage to which I'm entitled.
So any and all positive energy is appreciated!!
