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
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,
There is no shame in feeling like you do. Most of us find our emotions all over the place at this stage. We also tend to let our imaginations run away with us, leading to the worst case scenario. Fortunately, this very seldom happens. Regardess of what the outcome is, you will feel better once you know what you are dealing with. It's the fear of the unknown that is so hard to deal with.
At the moment, you are probably looking like a very frightened little girl to your workmates, which is why they keep asking you if you're ok. You will find that the more positive you are when giving people your results, the better they'll take it. You're right. Many people don't know what to say , but the more up beat you can be in yourself, the more normally they'll treat you.
I sincerely hope that all turns out well for you, but please remember that we are always here for you.
Thank you so much for such a lovely message. You're right. I was a lot better today and naturally found myself being more upbeat once I'd updated everyone and got the conversation about the biopsies out of the way. Just carried on as normal and didn't really have too much time to think. Keeping busy has definitely helped my mental health today. Xx
I hope that your rresults are ready for Thursday, as I'm sure that you don't want to wait any longer. We've all got over active imaginations when waiting for results and it's almost impossible to stop them from doing this. Fortunately, things are seldom as bad as we think.
I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you on Thursday!
I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 12 years and know how scary it is to be told that they're pretty sure that you have cancer on your first visit. It always comes as a shock and is hard to digest.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
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!
Thank you here's hoping we all get the news we want kept super busy today with the children and just normal conversation that helped and I'm another day nearer xx
I'm glad to hear that today was a better day for you. You're right. Keeping busy does help the time to pass and forces us to think of something more pleasant, even if it is only work related. We often compare this to the biggest rollercoaster ride you're ever likey to be on - one minute you're up and the next you're down in the doldrums again. There really is no rhyme nor reason to it, so just go with the flow.
