18. Anxiety hit me yesterday.

Jul 2017

I'm thinking it was a gift given to me by my morning coffee. I took half of one of my Klonopins and that really did the trick (except that I needed a nap in the afternoon). Today, I'm drinking half-caf, and I already cut a Klono in half just in case.
i started looking at strategies which include meditation and yoga, but I didn't really get to any of it, except to practice slow and easy breathing. I did make a list of all the things to be happy about, both in my recovery and stuff I'm looking forward to, and that is something I can look at whenever I need a reminder.
Just two days until I see my oncologist and get the results of the bone biopsy. I'm eagerly awaiting a referral to an orthopedist for osteoarthritis. Not thinking about it being cancer at all.
