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?
And others i may have missed love and thoughts are with you all, this is the worst bit to get over but yous will get through it, i think its the hardest thing to get through but yous will do it
My pre assessment is a week today and im *** that too because i know a fortnight later it will be my op, know how every one of you feels but very soon you will know where you are at, we are all in this together!
Everyone on this page you are all so lovely, jolamine, june and others i havent mentioned, be strong girls
Unfortunately my results are delayed and possibly back tomorrow or Wednesday but the consultant said he would call me once back. Felt physically sick waiting but now have some clarity.
He wrote a Mammogram chart down which says how he scores results.
M1 is normal
M2 is benign
M3 is 1 in 20 is cancer
M4 is more likely to be cancer
M5 definitely cancer
Mine is 3 and he did say it's a small chalky spot that wouldn't be felt and he thinks it will be benign but they can't say for certain, he also said I might need more biopsies if the grade comes back as b3 (biopsy chart) but I'm hopeful and less scared now that I've had a chance to ask all questions and praying that I'm going to be okay.
I did burst into tears again, I don't know where they come from!
He also explained that my breasts will take two months to heal.
You all have been my saving grace this past week, I will let you know what happens next.
Hi Lisa... so glad that you have a little clarity. Been thinking of you all day... it is such a hard thing to go through . I am sure I will be same Wednesday I will either cry or feel sick I think...keeping fingers crossed for a positive result. Lots of love and hugs ️ Rosie. And also Thankyou too it has been a godsend having you ladies to chat to. Will be forever grateful Rosie xxx
I've had my results. Got called in a room with 2 people and instantly fell apart fearing the worst. But it's positive news so far. They didn't find any cancer in my biopsy. They'd like to do a second biopsy (vacuum biopsy) to double check some more tissue. I'm having that done this Thursday and will get the results via telephone on 1st November.
She said worst case scenario is that there are pre cancerous cells present and they will just remove it in the form of a lumpectomy.
Hi Lisa, So sorry your results were delayed but glad you have some clarity and it sounds like you have reason to be optimistic. I really hope you hear soon and it's good news!
Rosie, Karen, thank you for your good wishes! One more sleep for me. Not sure how I've got through the last week but somehow I did (though I'm having a major wobble tonight!). Thank you for thinking of me, I shall update you tomorrow.
[@Lucy37] How did you get on today? Hope you're ok!
Love to all you amazing ladies on this thread. I'm thinking of you all!
Lots of luck for tomorrow. I will be thinking of you.
I spoke to the breast care nurses this morning as felt so in limbo since leaving my appointment on Tuesday. They said that the score from the mammogram was a 5 so very likely cancer. So I am sure I am going Thursday for clarification and hopefully treatment plan. Never felt so sick.
Thanks Nikki! Im in the same boat. I also called my nurse a couple of days after my biopsies to ask what the situation was. I think I was in shock on the day and only remember people acting/talking as if it was cancer, but no-one actually telling me! But she said it was 99% certain so tomorrow I'm sure it'll just be confirmed and hopefully a treatment plan put in place. I just want to get on with whatever needs doing!
Lucy, I missed your post earlier. I'm so happy for you! It's lovely to hear some positive news amidst all the fear and stress!
I didn't realise we were so similar. Is quite disheartening isn't it. I am so anxious thinking that any twinge or pain elsewhere is it spreading! I really just want to know what's what and get on with getting rid of it . If it is the news we are expecting, then at least we have the support of each other and the rest of the amazing women on this site. What a godsend this has been.
Well done Nikki for being brave enough to call for more information. I'm sorry about your score, but that's news to me, I was just told cancer and no-one mentioned a score before that stereotactic biopsy under mammogram I had last week. I didn't even know they scored the mammograms, so we're all learning here.
To everyone on this site waiting, thanks for sharing and Hopefully you'll get results/treatment plans soon and continue to support each other on this journey - take care Mickey x
