worrying about a recurrence of your cancer is a real fear that I'm sure we have all gone through..I have chronic back pain and after my cancer treatment I worried constantly, but decided I didn't want the fear to overwhelm my life.....the first couple years after treatment I did worry about every little ache & pain..my onc finally ordered a bone scan just to ease my fears...of course it was only arthritis but I'm glad I had it so I have a baseline...she tells me to just be aware of any NEW pain that's not usual or can't be relieved with analgesics..I agree with the others, if anything causes you concern, do not hesitate to let your onc know...and yes staying busy can keep the fears in check
just keep living your life
