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
Thank you. Back in this Thursday for vacuum biopsy! Very quick. Then they said results will be via telephone on 1st November. My hospital have been amazing. Forever grateful for the NHS ️
You must feel disappointed at not getting your full results today, but to be honest, it all sounds fairly positive. I do hope that you won't need any more biopsies, but you are better being certain now, rather than ignoring something which could grow if left.
Don't worry about the tears. I think that they come with the territory. You will feel better once you get a definite diagnosis irrespective of the outcome.
This is great news. I'm delighted for you. It may not feel like it at the moment, but it's good news that they are checking this tissue just to be absolutely certain. It also sounds as if they are going to rush your results through if they're going to have them for 1st November - I'm sure that you'll have no complaints with that!
Thank you Jolamine. You're right, definitely feel a little mixed. I'm obviously so relieved and grateful that they didn't find any cancer but also still nervous at how they feel the need to go back in. But she reassured me that they are double checking. Fingers crossed for no pre cancerous cells and this whole nightmare is over.
I wouldn't have got through this without all you amazing ladies. ️ Will keep everyone updated xx
Wow, that is really quick Lucy, is that under mammogram? If so, just to say I'm told now the steri strips are supposed to stay on 4-5 days -? I messed up there by taking them off too early and have a little hole - oops xx fingers crossed for you xx
No idea! They didn't mention mammogram. Just vacuum biopsy. I've had a couple of mammograms last time and a marker put in. I did think it was very quick. Made me worry a little but definitely not complaining. She seems very positive. Fingers crossed xx
