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?

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,
Jolamine xx
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
Absolutely. This forum has been a massive help to me. They scraped me off the floor when I first found my lump and flew in here like a wrecking ball!
Definitely chat over messages. Our stories and ages are very similar. Talking about it helps so much x

Hi lucy
That's the part im dreading too the anaesthetic the pain you get shooting up your arm, then tbe unknown with all this what will the pain be like, bruising, mood etc, its a dreadful thing to go through, i hate the feel of it after all the biolsies etc definitely doesnt feel like the other side, puncture wounds, and obviously things healing, then boom its an operation, its such a personal thing, invasion of your body thats private, i got nice bras, pants and pjs from prinark the breast cancer range its really nice! Dusky pink.
We are all different with our diagnoses and i pray theres nothing lurking about when they take away the radial scar, im on my last week of self isolating (demented) got to get my covid test on Friday then hospital 7.30am on Monday morning, cant fault the breast clinic or hospital, everyone so nice and on the ball, just be glad when its all over! As i said everyone on this page you are all angels im glad i joined in September everyone understands each other, a bunch of amazing, strong women who have experienced so much and here to tell the tale and still be so supportive to others on this horrible journey
Love and hugs
Karen
Bless you Karen,
Will be thinking of you Monday. Ooh will definitely be heading to primark to get some nice pj's and bras! That's it, we start to heal then it's on the the next thing!
Well I've managed a shower and actually got dressed. Something I didn't think I'd be able to do after only getting my diagnosis last night. Only had 3 hours sleep, can't wait for bed xx

Hi Lucy
I was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma grade 2
I had a small opp to remove partial areola, biopsy, unfortunately i didn't have clear margins
I had another opp, wide excisional perforation flap
Removed nipple and cut to chest wall, I had skin put in place and they filled the breast with my tissue, I went back 2 weeks later ...and I had clear margins, I am on Anastrozole, I am Er positive and u see oncologist Thursday this week to discuss my radiotherapy plan , I will probably have re construction next year...but all is good , chin up, its treatable xxxxxxxxx hugs xxxx

Hi Mickey

Hi Lisa, you'll feel much better when it's done believe me. I've seen some lovely posts you've written to other people to reassure them, which was lovely. Tip try not to hold on for dear life, my shoulder, arm and neck are still pretty much frozen three weeks later, I clearly tensed far too much. Think I will need physio, but way back on my current list. 2nd tip, I took myself to a lovely waterfall in my mind it helped, so find a safe precious place for you and it will be over before you realise. I'll be sending you positivity and it will all be over before my apt at 2.15. Thank you for your well wishes too. Love n hugs Mickey xx
