Im waiting on breast biopsy results, i get them on monday, the waiting is just dreadful, sometimes your gut feeling tells you what you know but this time i just dont know! Anyone feel or felt the same?
A very warm welcome to our forum. I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 12 years, plus a few false alarms, so I have been through a number of biopsies. All I can say, is that the wait never gets any easier. Most of us would say that this is one of the worst parts of our cancer journey, as thereare so many unknowns and uncertainties.
I am glad to hear that you don't have much longer to wait. Try to keep yourself occupied with other distractions to help the time to pass a little quicker over the weekend.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
Hi just joined this site reading different comments such an agonising wait for results I'm awaiting my appointment to see if my treatment has worked you feel so lonely at this moment hope all works out for you hang on in there my love thoughts are with you
i got results of my biopsies today and it is DCIS high grade. Really relieved it's at early stage but high grade is less good obviously. Nurse kept reassuring me it's curable and I would get to see my son turn into a grumpy teenager but I know she can't be sure of that.
will go for mri and depending on outcome might need further investigations. Operation is booked in for 14th October. Lumpectomy. ( I said I would be happy to do mastectomy but told but told not recommended as it hasn't spread and am still young..46.) then radio.
i am a single mum of a 4 year old and been through divorce over last 2 years.ex Husband lives overseas.I work part time as a secondary school teacher. I relocated to UK end 2018 so life has been really tough these last few years. I'm lucky to have a sister living nearby and she has been tower of strength for me.
very frightened right now but trying to hold onto the good stats. They didn't tell me the size of the lump. I'm wondering if I can phone to ask? Also whether the timings seem good or whether it's worth considering paying to get this done privately. My breast care nurse said dates are good and they have enough time to investigate if anything shows up on the MRI (don't have date for that yet). She said it's safe and better to get stuff done with nhs.
I'm scared this thing could be growing and spreading all the time - as doc said they only have the biopsies they took last week to go in atm.
glad to have this group and find some of you ladies got good news m. Thanks for reading! Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome x
Ive not slept much the pain isnt too bad but that scan was horrible it was so long and you cant move an inch, i said to the dr so im a medical mystery just now then lol, I knew with mobdays results they werent near to be where they wanted to be, they did a lot of xrays and put in another marker so hopefully they have got close enough now so yes another anxious wait, hardly slept last night I'll sleep today though dreadful going through this experience

In stage 2 breast cancer, cancer cells have not spread beyond the breast or nearby lymph nodes. Knowing the HR and HER2 status of your stage 2 breast cancer can help your oncologist determine which treatments are most likely to be effective. Stage 2 breast cancer is very treatable and the overall outlook is good.
