    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,

  • Hi lucy

    Go and enjoy yourself at the moment its out of your hands i know what the worry and unknown is like, im not out of the woods yet, its so hard to stay positive when something is constantly hanging over us, its the unknown and the waiting but dont let this beat you, im scared every day too as with most of us on here but we will all live to tell the tale,  we all have a mask on and its hard and believe me i wear my mask every day, its gut wrenching, you dont know whats ahead, but we are all supporting each other, at this stage dont let it win before you even know your results but we all think the worst, moods are like a rollercoaster, its something we wont forget going through, but we will get through it! Get your frock looked out, your makeup on and have fun, im going to see James bond tomorrow night lol few drinks afterwards at my new partners house, its only been 3 weeks since i met him, hes very supportive thought id be honest from the start, he didnt walk away he is very understanding but im scared dealing with this with a new person in my life, friends and family are supportive too but i have moments when i want to just be on my own, its very overwhelming but only you girls really get this! Easy for me to say things to people when im in the same boat but regardless what outcomes we get its a journey and something we wont forget but we can do this, so you better get to that party, look a million dollars and enjoy the weekend and forget things for a little while because i am, like you two minds but we deserve a break from this ***, so head held high and enjoy the party xx

    Hi June,

    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.

    I shall be thinking of you tomorrow morning.

    Regards,

    Oh June,

    It's so hard isn't it? I am surprised that your nurse didn't phone you back today. Make sure that you get this seen to tomorrow.

  • Hi Lucy

    In the same storm, something you said absolutely resonated with me, the fact this rollercoaster of a journey is one we will never forget!

    I had a mammogram guided core needle biopsy last Monday, I'm in an emotional state to say the least, my right boob is also still sore and reminding me of this hell we're going through.

    I had no lump but a swollen armpit and tender lymph nodes, I waited four weeks until I saw GP, two weeks later I was in the breast clinic, I had a mammogram...Then a 3d mammogram as there was a significant change, then I had US and she mentioned dense breast, hypoechic something and I needed a biopsy. I was gobsmacked as the area was above the nipple, not where I had pain, didn't feel any change in that area...

    Biopsy done 12 days after, so I am really hoping this isn't the C because this anxiety will be giving me the C!

    I found the process horrible, I cried and went into shock when the radiographer said "You're in the right place, area of concern, significant changes" as if I'm written off with it already, I just wanted to run but couldn't because right boob was jammed in that panini press whilst Picasso was felt tipping the rest to make sure I didn't move!

    I get my results 3.30pm on Monday, 30 mins after yours, I'll be thinking of you, glad I'm not alone in this  

    P.S Go to that party xx

  • Oh hun, 

    I was exactly the same. Can I ask how old you are? I found a lump on 18th sept and was at the clinic on sat 9th Oct. I was expecting them to do a quick ultrasound and send me on my way with a diagnosis of fatty tissue. When he said he was suspicious and wanted to do a biopsy I think I went in to shock too. I was the only one crying in the waiting room and felt like a 13 year old girl who wanted her mum. I was shaking uncontrollably. 
     

    I'm 37 with no family history of breast cancer. I know statistics are on my side but I'm finding it dreadfully hard to be positive. I've always been a worrier. I feel drained. I have decided to go the party, I need to take my mind away even if  just for a few hours. 
     

    I've never been more scared in my whole life about Monday. But at least we will finally know what we are dealing with and can begin to try and digest it. 
     

    I will be thinking of you ️

  • Hi Lucy, thanks for replying- we are nearly there now, two nights left!

    I'm 47 no family history of breast cancer or cancer until 2019 then my mum who is 84, sister 40, and another sister age 44 were diagnosed with bowel cancer within 18 months of each other, it's been an awful time but thank God they are all in remission.

    Couldn't sleep well last night my boob feels so bruised and aches, fingers crossed tonight is better.

    Thanks to everyone on here too, sharing your experience and just reading your posts helps me get clarity and helping me prepare for Monday.

    Thank you so, so much 

     

     

  • Wishing you lots of love and hugs I get my results Wed  good luck and will be thinking of you all on this post that are waiting to get news of biopsies.
