I am writing this from my own experience. I am a 2x breast cancer Survivor and had chemo both times. I got over my fear by thinking it will kill the cancer and I will live. I have a supporting husband and great doctors and nurses. Chemo is not as bad as it used to be many years ago. There are many drugs available now to counteract some of the side effects. Also everybody is different, side effects can be minimal.

Chemo is not easy, but it kills the cancer. If you are the person that fears chemo go to the American Cancer Societys website and look for a chat room for the perticular cancer that you need chemo for, read some of the Q and A that patients and survivors post it will be of great help. The more you know the better the understanding. YOU will survive.

What causes the body to tighten up when its cold or anxious?

We live in fear because instead of living for the present we live in the past and from the past assume the future. Therefore there is no living in the present and the future is the past. This means we live in the past This results in fear and as we continue to live like this fear grips our lives. We fear death, the future, the past, evil, to loose what we have and love, nature, pain, illness etc. We seem to fear the known and the unknown. The unknown is not known therefore this fear grips us when we see things that do not make sense. We do not know how to handle this fear. Our bodies thirteen's and we feel cold and this is fear at its core. Especially when death confronts us or we face the Panama's.
