    Yes, of course it is perfectoy normal.

    It is type of post traumatic stress disorder.  We all get this, esp. as times of previous tests, etc. come up.

    she may wish to look into antidepressants and/or an anxiety drug.  Run it by her oncologist, of course, as everything should be.

    I have PTSD as well. I am seeing a psychologist and she has helped me tremendously. I was not able to sleep for a couple months and that made my life intolerable.
