Wow...not me
      01/19/09 09:52 AM

01/15/2009 -I will never forget this day. I went in for just a regular checkup and my annual physical and blood work. The words that I never thought I would hear came out of my physician mouth.

Even still today, I can't say it. How could this have happened? Me? No way there has to be a mistake or you got my labs mixed with someone else's? I freaked out, i was shocked!

I called my best friend who left work to be with me. I cried and cried until I had no tears left. I called my married boyfriend and tried to meet him for lunch but I had to tell him on the phone because he would not stop asking questions. We went to get him tested, wont find out until Thursday.

Today is the 4th day almost to the hour and I am still in shock. I have not left my condo since coming home on last Thursday. What am I going to do? My doctor says that I am the same person, sorry buddy; I don’t feel like the same person. It feels like the Invasion of the Body Snatchers, I look and act the same but I have this thing inside me that is affecting every part of my body.

I have read several feeds; some good and others are still in my shoes. I want to get to that point but I am looking for the user’s handbook - may I borrow yours? I don’t know what to do next. So far today, I have not cried.

Any advice you can give or some encouraging words would help. I am quite a stubborn person once my mind is made up. I will fight this but I cant take that first step alone.

Nervous in Nashville
