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
No doubt you are still feeling tender and not up to contacting us yet - there-s no hurry. I just wanted to let you know that we are all thinking of you and hope that your operation went well.
They cut from just under muddle breast bone all under to armpit. And removed nipple , replaced with a big rectangular shape...I also have another cut under arm , they removed 4 lymph node too. I get my results on 14th Oct and see consultant, xxxx I
I am so sorry to hear about the pain. This should settle over the next few days.You won't notce the scar under your arm with time. I expect that the large rectangular shape was to ensure that they got all of the cancer this time. Although none of this looks pretty at the moment, it will improve as it all heals. Are there any plans to reconstruct your nipple?
I know that the coming weeks will be an anxious time, but there shouldn't be any different news than that which you got after your biopsy. Here's hoping that your margins are clear this time.
Thinking of you and hoping that your pain reduces soon.
I had urgent right breast nipple/areola exciting wide local excision with perforator flap reconstruction of defect and SLNB , GA ???? Not a lumpectomy xxx
Was the infected area larger than they originally thought? The lymph node removal is usually routine with surgery. Here's hoping that they are all clear. Start making a list of questions for next time you see your consultant now. It is easier to get this ready as certain thoughts pop into your head, rather than waiting until the last minute.
It's a lot to take in for now, but it sounds as if they should have got it all this time. It is normal to delay reconstruction until after you've had treatment.
