Episode 6: Coping with Scanxiety
For many cancer patients and survivors, the time leading up to scans can bring overwhelming anxiety — often called scanxiety.
In Episode 6 of My 15 Years, Melody opens up about her personal experience with scanxiety over the past 15 years of living with ocular melanoma. She shares the fear, uncertainty, and emotional weight that can come with routine scans, even years after diagnosis.
More importantly, Melody talks about how she has learned to cope — offering perspective, strategies, and honest reflections on what has helped her navigate those difficult moments.
This episode is for anyone who feels the stress of waiting for results, living between appointments, or carrying the quiet fear that can come with survivorship.
You are not alone.
