Has Anyone Felt Like They Miss Their Oncology Visits And/or Infusions?
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone felt like they miss their oncology visits and/or infusions? Sounds weird to me, but I find that I do to some extent. Is it the comfort of knowing they’re there for me? Knowing someone is watching over me? A separation anxiety? Don’t get me wrong, I’m thankful that the treatments have done what they’re supposed to do and I don’t have to worry about it getting worse. But how what do I say to my loved ones? How do I explain it? Do I need to find someone to talk to?

I think I missed my treatment time too. I still continued with maintenance every other month for two years.
I think that feeling will go away when your “regular” life has returned to a more “normal” day. I think it is the level of care we are receiving during treatment. I slept like a rock through every treatment but still missed it. I hope this feeling passes soon.
