Hi Candycain. I'm sorry to hear of your diagnosis. I had my biopsy results on 19th April and then needed MRI and ultrasound tests. I have my surgery booked in for 26th June. 

They should have told you what grade of cancer you have. I was told mine was grade 1. I think there are 3 grades of beeast cancer.  So I don't really know what the 1-5 scale they used to speak to you. 

I am told the pathology results after the op are taking 4-5 weeks. So that sounds right. 

When I had my biopsy they told me mine was 4 on a scale of 1-5 

1 meaning the biopsy would almost definitely be benign

5 meaning it was definitely cancerous 

so mine being 4 it was highly likely to be cancerous. 

this is nothing to do with staging. Hope this helps
