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?
Like Mickey, I'm very new to all this too. I've had ultrasound, mammogram, triple core biopsy and a marker put in. The radiographer and doctor both said they were literally 50/50 on whether it was cancer and that they couldn't possibly tell without biopsy results. I've got a friend who they said they were 99% sure it was cancer and it turned out to be benign! So they really can't be sure. I get my results on Monday. In the short time I've been in this group these ladies have unknowingly pulled me out of a very dark place. We are here for you ️
I think I get my results the same day as you so will be thinking of you! Please let us know how you get on. You are not alone in feeling sick with worry. I too started off with a positive consultant, who thought it was nothing and then had to apologise for misleading me. Double the shock! I wasn't able to eat a thing for a few days after my clinic visit. They pretty much told me it was cancer, even without the biopsy results, so I'm preparing myself and just hoping it's easily treatable. I hope it's good news for you but you will cope with whatever the results are! I haven't told anyone yet (except my husband) probably because I'm stupidly still thinking they might have made a mistake.
Stay strong, you'll get through this, everyone says the waiting is the worst time, and there will always be someone here to support you if you need it.
Thank you for your reply, so sorry to hear your diagnosis and hoping you get positive news going forward with treatment. I agree, I working within the NHS (Midwife) so often see things before return of results. I think I am am just grasping at straws and the possibility that they might have got it wrong.
I find it so sad yet reassuring to see so many other women in the same position, support from people who know exactly how it feels has helped so much. Xx
I will keep my fingers crossed for good positive news for you. Not too much longer to wait, hang on in there.
Again, I totally agree about chatting on this forum. I feel less alone, I feel more able to get through it all. Women supporting women in a desperate time of need just blows me away. Xx
Thank you, I'm trying to tell myself one moment at a time, but it just blows you away. It must be even harder for you working as a Midwife, as you say you get to recognise certain warning signs and responses from others who may have seen 'something'. Personally I am the sort of person that needs to know and I was preparing myself for cancer. I've realised though however you prepare yourself it's still a shock. I hope they've got it wrong for you too, but if not, like you say we're all here to try and help you through xx keep in touch.
I do...but there is always going to be doubt to my story xxxxxx fingers crossed , it stays away xx just wait to heal..radiotherapy...then reconstruction xx
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.
