No sleep tonight

Hi all, anyone else joining me with the no sleep tonight syndrome? I have an appointment tomorrow that I need to be up at 6am to get to, we live in the back end of nowhere and that's the nearest hospital that has a neurosurgeon ? my appointment is at 9:30.
I was told almost a year ago I have a syringomyelia, they found a syrinx in my spine on a MRI of a lump that grew on my spine. So I'm off for my full body scan results to see if anything else is there like a tumour (worst case scenario) or if I'm going to be ok, I just need to watch, have regular scans (most likely scenario)
Still very nervous. All my symptoms are pointing towards pathological neuropathy as a result from all my autoimmune disorders but that's a different section of neuroscience ?
Hope everyone else is well, if you're awake please tell me about your condition/s
