Oh my gosh it's shocking how you've had to wait, it's not surprising your stress is through the roof as it's unbelievably a tough enough time without all that added on top,  Wish I could do something to help  but know I'm only a message away if you ever need to let it all out.

I'm pleased you now have a date for surgery, will be with you in spirit on the 14th but boy - what a long time you've had to wait Mickey xxx

I'm doing OK now, felt very low after it all, couldn't handle  friends or family thinking I could switch off and felt I needed time to just heal mentally from it all and get used to normality again.

But it's so  lovely to hear from you again my fellow mammogram machine wrestler (shoulder still aches) 

Sending you love and a huge, huge hug 

Thank you Lisa, I'm not surprised you felt low after the experience, it takes sooo much out of you. I'm glad you gave yourself the space to mentally heal. 
 

Talking of the mammogram wrestling, I've just received an appointment for an ultrasound on my frozen shoulder for this Thursday.  It is, thank heavens improving now I'm not working and I can move it in a straight line now, but it's still causing pain and I still can't sleep on it. 

Got through my pre-op ok, got to go in for bloods etc next Wed. I have quite a few appointments again now pre-op, hopefully that will help the next two weeks to pass more quickly. 
 

Thanks for checking in and take care of you Lisa. Enjoy the family fun lead up to Christmas. Sending love and a huge hug back, Mickey xx ️

Thank you Jolamine, I will keep you posted. I hope you are well xx ️

Hi

lisa, jolamine, mickey, june, Lucy and all the other amazing women ive had the pleasure of meeting

All good news after the removal of the radial scar pathology report its LCIS not cancer! What a last 3 months this has been ive to get yearly mammograms for the next 10 years so definitely keeping a close eye on any changes

I feel i should be extatic by the news but i dont know how im supposed to feel is it the whole journey that im overwhelmed with i dont know, sounds selfish to what so many of you have went through and are going through! 

Think its maybe because im going to miss our chats when you have all been a rock to me! But im going to keep on the page i want to know how you all are!! you have all touched my heart and are some of the most amazing women ive had to privilege to meet!

Thank you to every one of you special ladies

Lots of love and hugs to you all

Hi Karen, just a quick note to say 'fabulous news' and re-iterate that you are in no way selfish - you have been scarred by this process and have undergone awful biopsies and surgery as well as the massive dips and dives of this emotional rollercoaster journey. You have shared your story with all on this thread and given valuable support and a happy ending is just what the doctor ordered. Love n hugs and I know we'll keep in touch - Mickey xx ️ ️

Oh Karen you sound like I did, should be relieved but it didn't register, I felt guilty for a while too I don't think I'll ever forget this.

That feeling of being free and normal isn't as it used to be but three weeks on I feel it's emerging, this might happen with you so be gentle with yourself, it might take days for this news to sink in. But it is so good that you are monitored yearly, that is such a relief.

 I'm so, so grateful you started the post because no other thread felt the same.

Be free now girl xxx Sending you love and a big blooming hug ♥

Take care

Love Lisa xxxx

That's great Mickey,

I hope that the ultrasound goes well tomorrow.

Regards,

Jolamine xx

Morning mickey

Good luck at your ultrasound today

Love karen xxx

Hi Karen,

That is such great news to read.  It took me a few days to process when I got got results your mind has gone to the worst place so many times during the never ending wait.  Be kind to yourself and allow yourself time to process.  I am so grateful that you started this thread as it gave me great comfort when I was waiting on a biopsy and results.

Take care x
