Friday I found out I have a grade 3 breast cancer. My lymph nodes in my neck are inflamed so I fear it's stage IV already, but I won't know til surgery. I had a couple days of panic and lots of hysterical sobbing. Then I have days of calm. I asked for an anti-anxiety med, got lorazepam because that was the last thing I took way long years ago so it was all I knew to ask for. The 1 mg knocked me out, so today I tried 0.5 mg. It was better but I'm not sure it's something I could take if I'm going to be out and driving and going to work.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a workday-friendly anti-anxiety med? I don't have a pdoc right now so I'm working with my GP.
