Been told I have breast cancer

I'm currently waiting for my biopsy results and I'm so so scared. My children are teenage girls studying GCSE AND A LEVELS and are so upset about what's going to happen to me. My consultant said it's definitely cancer and we have to wait until next Friday to see what the treatment plan is going to be and I'm so scared I'm going to die and not be her for my girls .

  • Dear Leanne,

    I am sorry too meet you here, I haven't been on the forum for a while but read your post and needed to reply. 
     

    im 38 with two young sons, I went to the Clinic on my own as the GP didn't seem concerned, on the day of my appointment I was also told I had breast cancer, it was like an outer body experience my legs just went from underneath me and I instantly thought I would die. Our bodies go into fight or flight mode I was in flight mode that day.

    That week waiting for results was the worst I had felt, I sat up all night thinking through every worded Scinario I could think of,,  When the day came that my husband and I went to the hospital although I was scared I had been to so many dark places I was actually relieved that I knew what we were dealing with. 
    When you go for your results they will be able to tell you what BC you have and how they wil treat it, you might have some Scans which again will be hard mentally but they will need to get the whole picture.

    You team will have a plan and will treat this and you will be fine.  Treatments are so advanced, you found it and your sorting it out.

    reach out too people on here like you have, there are a lot of us on here that have been through it, and can help as much as we can. 
     

    i have since had my T removed and have started Chemo. 
     

    Lots of love x

  • Thanks so my for your response as I need to believe I can do this and it's hard when not knowing anything xx
