Thanks so much for the reply, means a lot. Good advice too thank you. So true that your mind can wander so easily and take you to places that you didnt know existed! 

Keeping everything crossed and thanks again for the reply. Xx

You're welcome. It is such a rough time so happy to chat or just listen if needed.

Fingers crossed for good news xx

Hi Vic

im sorry you are going through the awful waiting game. I had a biopsy last Thursday after getting a recall on a routine mammogram, 3 small white calcification spots and a shadow which is scaring me a bit. I too haven't mentioned anything to my daughters as they are doing uni exams. It's difficult keeping it to yourself although I do have my husband thank goodness. It seems a long time to wait for the results, I have a 3 week wait so just 2 more to go. I think the best advice is to keep as distracted as you can. Reading your post tonight has reminded me that I am not alone and neither are you. There must be so many women waiting for results, you don't think about it until it happens to you. I hope you can keep positive and remember you are not alone. I don't know if you can exercise but I have found it very helpful and going for walks. Take care and very much thinking of you. Xx

Hi moogie23

Glad i found this page to know im not alone. 

Really good you get good news. Take care of yourself x

Hello Vic

I know you will feel terribly worried about your calcifications.  The wait for biopsy results is very difficult, especially if you have children.  The only thing that will help is to try to distract yourself and stay busy.  Take things a day at a time.
 

Calcifications are very often benign and whilst we tend to think the worst, we really shouldn't as you will only know the outcome on results day.  Stay positive and take someone with you.  There is no point being in a hole of anxiety in the here and now.  Difficult I know and you will have bad days.

Having gone through this myself I can say that the uncertainty of not knowing is the worst time but there is every chance your calcifications will be benign so try not to overthink too much for now. 
 

My calcifications weren't benign but low grade DCIS with a very small 1mm invasive.  So it's been found very early and will be sorted.  You will feel better once you know what you are dealing with, or you may be dealing with nothing at all hopefully, so do stay positive.  It's terribly hard to keep things in perspective when going through this but do try if you can.  
 

Wising  you all the best for some good news soon.  Take care.   

Thanks Vic, let's keep fingers crossed for benign results. Take care xx
