The former 'Beverly Hills, 90201' actress says she got emotional during a recent hospital visit, 'Sometimes, you just get sick of being poked.'
Shannen Doherty continues to inspire fans by sharing her emotional journey of battling cancer. In her latest post on Instagram, the 45-year-old actress reveals that she had a "full panic attack" before a "CT scan to do mapping for radiation plan."
"This scared me so much," she remembers. "Not sure why. Was supposed to get it with contrast but the minute they started looking at which vein to use I started crying. Full panic attack. Sometimes, you just get sick of being poked. And that's ok."
"I cried. I felt sorry for myself for a minute. Then stopped and reminded myself of how lucky I am. Thank God my new radiation oncologist decided to try without contrast so I would calm down. So.... one panic attack down and mapping done!! Now to actually start radiation... #cancerslayer #warrior #fightlikeagirl #blessed."
The "Beverly Hills, 90210" alum is now preparing for a breast reconstruction surgery following her mastectomy. "Getting my expander expanded by my reconstructive surgeon @jayorringermd and the lovely Ana Marie. I consider myself very lucky and very blessed to have this man as my doctor. The last couple of days have been busy gearing up for radiation. #warrior #fightlikeagirl #cancerslayer," she wrote in another picture.
