    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 Jane,

    I'm glad to hear that you have had your tumour removed and hope that you are feeling ok. We are fortunate to have routine mammography to pick up on these symptoms early, lthough I'm sure that the diagnosis came as a shock. Do you know what type of breast cancer you have? Grade 1 is good news and is treatable, which is the important thing.

    I hope that all goes well for you tomorrow.

    Kind regards,

  • Hi Nikki

    Thanks for thinking about me, my results ftom the mammogram core biopsy are delayed so I'm back in that dark zone of navigating through life whilst this 'thing' lurks in my head.

    Had a bit of a chat with the consultant who explained that I had a small chalky spot in my breast that was graded an M3 - hence the reason for the biopsies but it sounded better than how the radiologist and mammogram technicians described it and it was caught by chance as I went in about a swollen armpit & lymph node.

    I just want to say I'm thinking about you, I don't have any tips to help you switch off from this as the process of waiting is undeniably indescribable.

    Sending you a loving hug and I wait with anticipation for your results  on Thursday

    Love from Lisa xxx

  • Thank you Rosie, you are truly so kind hearted and I'm honestly so grateful for you, I did feel like I'm not alone in this process and felt brave and strong as I sat waiting and waiting as I thought of you having to go through this on Wednesday and I thought of Lucy at 3pm. It enabled me to switch my brain to practical mode until he said the results were delayed then I burst into tears and used up all the scratchy kitchen paper they offered me!

    I hope that you manage to sleep tonight, I found the last few days the hardest, let me know what time you are being seen 

    I'm with you Rosie , good luck

  • Hi Jolimine,

    Its invasive ductal carcinoma. I've had lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy....my lymph nodes looked fine on the scan so I'm hoping they're clear.

  • Hi

    Mine started in areola...could only feel it..then could see it..had an excisional biopsy...cancer in margins 

    Then they did a wide local excision and perforator flap...removed nipple and did  sentinel node biopsy...

    This time it was clear , grade 2...so...this should be reassuring for you...chin up

    Am sure it will be ok...thinking of u xxx

    Hi Lisa,

    I am so sorry to hear that your results are not through yet. You must feel really frustrated by this.Still, it's good to see that your consultant is being thorough and making sure that he doesn't miss anything, as you're better to get it all attendd to from the outset.

    I do hope that you hear soon.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx

  • I know what you mean hun. My consultant was running 1 hour late and I was working myself up and starting to sweat! Then I thought of you getting your results and all the other ladies in the same boat and told myself to be strong. X ️

  • Thinking of you today Rosie
