Hi Karenk,

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.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

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 

Thank you it dose help when are your results due xx

Hi, I do now (just) know it's cancer from first biopsies/mammogram etc, but second biopsies will make a difference to my treatment plan - I'm hoping that 2-3 weeks. I will know it all - the waiting is hard for everyone xx 

I'm sorry did they say it was likely to be cancer when they did biopsy ? All the waiting around is the hardest part I think xx

They didn't comment but me and my sister thought it was from all the reactions I was getting - especially when they told me that mammogram also showed microcalcifications xx it's really hard to tell from the ultrasound I think, there are so many types of cancer and a lot of them look like other types of cysts on ultrasound, so I've been told..... they can never be really sure until they get the biopsy results xx waiting around is definitely the hardest part, you're not alone though xx  

No true I'm just hoping it's good news but trying to function do every day stuff is hard just doing kids uniforms and then I'm thinking I want to be around to there old enough to take care of them self's I know I'm over thinking this but it was a total shock I wasn't expecting them find anything after I had been examined twice and told they felt nothing and I was on my own didn't ask any questions at all just kept saying yes and thank you it was like I wasn't there strange feeling ...how are you finding it xx

Hi, I'm hoping it's good news for you too. It's really hard to function and only natural for your brain to overthink everything. Try to be kind to yourself and accept that it's impossible to just carry on as before and that's ok. I'm the sort of person that needs to know what I'm dealing with and so at least I now know. But I'm in shock, body and brain keeps going into shutdown, but I know that's natural too! Just keep trying to stay positive and give myself one problem at a time to deal with, so I feel I have some control xx hope that helps you too xx 

It dose thank you ..you have really helped it's not same talking to family they just look at me and I can see there worried so I act super positive and upbeat as I don't want upset them I hope you get news soon on treatment plan as I'm same I can deal better with stuff if I know what I'm dealing with xx

I feel the same - family and friends just don't know how to react (understandably), a bit like parenting, no-one gives you a 'handbook' on how to do it. That's why this site is so useful as we're all on our own journey, but we understand the vast array of emotions and challenges that we're all facing in different ways xx be kind to yourself xx 

I am I've decided get my self sorted having a bath I'm allowed remove the dressings now and going cook tea do something normal xx

Sounds like an excellent plan - enjoy the relaxing Bath xx
