I've had core biopsy done twice, now I have an appt with a consultant. I'm very worried about this. Would you get an appointment with consultant if it was not bad news? Please help I'm so scared.

Hi Snacky,
A very warm welcome to our forum.
I am sorry to hear that you are feeling this way. It is usual to be called back to see your consultant about 1-2 weeks after you have had a biopsy. Some consultants have been phoning or writing to their patients with their results during Covid, but most prefer to give results in person, regardless of the outcome.
I hope that you don't have long to wait and that all turns out well for you.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
Kind regards,

Thanks for the reply, I'm just waiting to be seen now. Absolutely terrified,

Hi Snacky,
I am so very sorry to hear this. Do you know what type of cancer you have, or what sort of treatment is planned?
Breast cancer is one of the more treatable forms of cancer nowadays. I myself have had 2 bouts in the past 12 years and I am still living a busy and fulfilled life.
Please remember that we are always here for you.
Kind regards,

Thanks so much xx not sure about the type or anything. I'm to have an mri scan. He said chemo then surgery. I'm glad you're doing well, it makes me feel more positive.
It's hard to take it in and accept that you've got it. You will probaly find that you are angry one minute and in denial the next. I hope that you have good support from family and friends. Have they said when you will get your MRI?
You have a trying few months ahead of you, but you'll get there.
Regards,

Hi, thanks again. I think mri is next week, but I will find out tomorrow.
Family are all being supportive and obviously upset but we're all going to work together.
Thanks for speaking to me x
