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
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
It would be worth phoning your breast care nurse tomorrow to see what she thinks. All is possibly fine, but sometimes we get a build up of fluid which may need to be aspirated. This is a very simple procedure and relieves any discomfort immediately.
So glad I've found this thread. Had 3 biopsies taken from my right breast yesterday. The mammogram was clear but the ultrasound was suspicious. He said he has mixed feelings about it and won't know either way until the result is back. I have an appointment on 18th Oct. Absolutely petrified. Struggling to function x
Hi Lucy37, it's really hard and I know it's difficult not to worry . It's good news the mammogram was clear though. The 18th will feel like ages away, I know, as does everyone on this site. I have further biopsies under mammogram this Tuesday and so I'll have 2-3 weeks wait before I know the full extent of what I'm dealing with. I struggle to function, but I find this site and the lovely people that respond and support you, such a help and I hope you do too xx Mickey xx
