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.

Not all lumps are cancerous. Many are benign cysts or fibrous changes. It is aworrying wait for results, but we all hsave to go through it. Did they say when your results would be back?
I sincerely hope that all turns out well for you.

It is always a stressful time waiting for your results. Sometimes, the only way to be certain is to have a biopsy. Only 1 person in every 8 who attend the breast clinic will get a cancer diagnosis. Not all lesions are cancerous. Many are benign cysts or fibrous changes. Here's hoping that this will be the case for you.

They gave me an appointment card before I left for a face to face appointment for a weeks time. I'm wondering if it's good news then maybe they'd call me before instead? Who knows. I just want it over, I can't see me getting through the next week without having a complete breakdown. I'm wondering if the doctor can give me something like diazepam to try and be calmer x
Thank you so much. Of course I will let you all know. I think this forum will help me get through the week. I'm desperately trying to be positive but just can't seem to function normally. Why am I so weak? I'm 37 with two kids but suddenly I feel like a 12 year old little girl who wants her mum. I need to try and snap out of it. I literally can't eat or anything. Maybe work will help as long as people don't keep asking me every 5 mins if I'm ok like they have done for the last 3 weeks. It's hard, people just don't know what to say x
Hi they said there hoping the results will be back on Thursday but will change my appointment if not ...I'm hoping its nothing just can't stop my mind from working over time I've been ill on and off for months but I always say well it's nothing new my pain is due to arthritis or I always had bad head aches and it is probably just that here's hoping that I get all clear xx
Hi [@Lucy37] I feel your pain - I'm in the same position and don't get my results for another week. I think you definitely have reasons to feel positive. I want to give you hope and not raise your hopes, but in my experience (end of last week - though it seems like months ago) they made it very clear that they thought it was cancer and I was introduced to my very own breast cancer nurse right after my ultrasound. That was a shock! It's good they're checking out anything suspicious - so much better than missing something - and the future appointment will be to talk over the results, even if there's no further action needed. I hope it's all good for you and in the meantime take strength from the amazing ladies in this chat. I only joined a couple of days ago and am overwhelmed at what people are coping with and capable of. But yes, the waiting is hell and I'm not coping either. Be kind to yourself! Xx
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. My GP who referred me was so sure it was fatty tissue but referred me for 'piece of mind' so I went to the appointment assuming it would be a quick ultrasound and off I go. I fell apart when he said I want to do a biopsy. He did say it's normal practice and try not to worry. Im terrbile for thinking the worst in every single situation. I wish I could fast forward time. x
Hope you are all ok this morning, I have the hospital tomorrow 9am god thats early lol getting the mag seed put in; then wait for surgery dste to remove the radial scar, fingers crossed after all this that that is benign too, but either or what a journey in your life, as every one says the wait is the worst thing ever!!! Its the unknown that scares you the most i think, and i agree outsiders can give support but its only this group that truly understands! So many lovely wonen on here that are true inspirations which includes june and jolamine,

I hope that you are doing ok. Well, tomorrow will be another step closer to getting rid of whatever needs to come out. I hope that all goes well for you. 9am is a good early start for you - rather you than me!
How are you getting on? You will be glad to get your results tomorrow and, I have my fingers crossed for you. Are you any further forward with your son?
I feel so sickly today xxx my son tried listening to music b4 bed and it worked a little xx but he won't go to gp xx he wants to try wort it himself xx omg....10.30 I want it now...but not xx if u know what I mean xx
How did Karen get on? Was ir her results roday? X hope she ok xxx
Had the magseed put in on Tuesday, pre op on the 25th and op on the 8th of November to take this radial scar out, thinking of you for tomorrow everything is crossed
I'm sorry to hear that your not feeling too good today. Do you think that this is due to the srtess of waiting for your results tomorrow? How are your breasts feeling now.
I am sorry to hear that your son wants to try this alone. It is a difficult thing to do without help. Would he talk to a cancer counsellor? Cancer affects all of the family in one way or another and, there is no shame to admit it and accept the help that is there for him.
I don't think that Karen has any further appointments until 25th October.
It's 2.30am I can't sleep , I am so worried about my results
I called breast nurse today.....didn't get a call back.
I only wanted advice....under my breast the wound it red and weeping clear liquid..I just wanted advice on what to do...I head nothing xx u gonna try sleep for couple of hours xxxx
