Hi Vic, 

Sorry you find yourself here but glad that you reached out. This forum can be a great source of support and advice!

It's totally understandable to be scared and the waiting is the absolute worst. The only advice I can give for the coming weeks is to try and stay busy/distracted, do nice things when you can, spend time with your son, and friends/family. You will find your mind wanders to a dark place and you feel frightened and fear the worst but this is totally natural (not fun but natural!).

I was diagnosed with DCIS after finding calcifications but also had other symptoms so no need to assume your news will be bad. It's more likely to be nothing. And once you know, either way, you can come to terms /put it behind you. 

Hang in there and be kind to yourself x
