Suspicious breast lumps, biopsy results Friday, so nervous

Hi

I found a lump and went to gp. Gp referred me to the hospital and I got an appointment with 48 hours last Thursday . When I got there they found a second lump and so had biopsies and the bit of metal thing put in my boob. I was told on the day it's suspicious and that they were sorry but they couldn't see anything in my lymph nodes which the nurse said was good. I have to wait for the team meeting which isn't until this Friday (over a week later) for them to review and call me back in. I'm trying to be positive but I'm so god damn nervous and stressed I'm not sleeping properly. I know there is so much that can be done but the wait is killing me trying to stay positive. 
so looking for some reassurance I'm not alone and someone else been in this situation before. Im preparing for bad news after them saying what they said but im going out of my mind lol 

  • Sending big hugs to you. 

  • Hi CazCu,

    Sorry that I haven't replied sooner. I am on holiday and this is the first chance that I've had to catch up on my mail.

    I am so sorry to hear this news. How did you get on with discussing reconstruction with your nurse? 
     

    I had a double mastectomy 12 years ago, but was not a suitable candidate for reconstruction. I manage well despite this. Do you know when your surgery will be? You will feel more positive once you start treatment. If I can help you in any way please let me know.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you are getting on. Remember that we are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx

  • Hi Cath,

    I am so sorry to hear that you too are waiting for results. This is always a nerve racking time, especially when you are led to expect bad news. The only thing that helps a little is to keep yourself busy.

    I sincerely hope that all turns out as well as it can on Friday and that you will still have some treatment options. Please let us know how you get on and remember, that we are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx

  • It's a bowel cancer recurrence after 10 years absolutely gutted. It's a grade 4 and according to this consultant inoperable. The last consultant I saw said they would give me chemo to try and shrink the Tumors and do surgery so god knows. I have a consultation meeting with oncology on Friday.

  • Hi CazCu,

    Oh have you hope you are ok. I'm basically trying not to think about it not being curable it's so frightening. Seeing the oncologist on Friday dreading what they are going to say. 
     

    At least 10 years ago they were looking to cute. This time I'm being told it's advanced and inoperable.
