Be strong sweetheart. Breast cancer has known to be cured

I never wanted to be part of this group either.

This part of the process is the worst. My diagnosis came as a massive shock. I had no lump, it was found through a routine (first ever ) mammogram.

Waiting is so hard, knowing and having a plan will definitely help.

Glad you have your husband to take with you for your results.

I have everything crossed for you x

Hi Lops,

I am so very sorry that you're going through this. Sending you hugs

The waiting is absolutely the worst! I hated that. I suggest that you try to keep yourself busy and don't give yourself time to think and worry. Keep busy, do what you love to do and try not to get overwhelmed because it's so easy to do unfortunately!

I'm so glad you have your husband to go with you and for support. Please make sure you keep talking and come for support if you need it. We are all here for you every step of the way.

Sending you lots of hugs ️

Best wishes,

Jess xx

My story sounds startling similar to yours ... Except at the breast clinic they didn't say it's probably cancer, they said it could be but it could cancer but also could be a wholr load of other things and there's no way of knowing until the biopsy comes back.

I don't know what to think. My results were due last week but got delayed and now due tomorrow. To be honest I don't really have any advice on how to deal with the waiting! I've tried to keep busy, just pottering about getting out for walks etc. I've told quite a few Friends about it which has really helped me, but that might not be something everyone feels comfortable doing. 

Do you have a date for your results?

Sending you hugs x

I'm due tomorrow at 2:30 to get my results officially. Taking my hubby with me for support.

I've told my close friends too who have been amazingly supportive. Pottering about is mostly what I have been doing too-anything to keep occupied!

hope it all goes well for you tomorrow-keep us updated x

I received a diagnosis today of Granulomatous mastitis.

Had never heard of it even through all of my Google searches about breast lumps!

I still can't believe it wasn't breast cancer. I feel so humbled that it isn't if that makes sense? I have found such comfort in this forum it made this past 2 weeks more bareable. 

Lops did you also get results? 

Sending hugs

That's so great you haven't got breast cancer! I've not heard of that either and I have googled loads of stuff the last week lol!

my results were crap. Triple negative breast cancer grade three. Got to have an mri asap to check it hasn't spread. 6 months of chemo then surgery.

im ok at the mo-had a complete breakdown earlier in the office. Just had a long hot bath and am working my way through a bottle of wine. Probably not the best idea but today I don't care!

im so scared it's spread, so scared. Not for me but for my husband and kids 

Hi Lops,

Firstly I just want to say I'm so sorry to hear your results have confirmed breast cancer. Just suspecting it is scary enough, I don't think it's uncommon for people to break down when they're told this news.

It's OK to not be OK.

I totally get it when you say scared, but not for you. I keep looking at my partner ,daughter (and dogs) thinking am I going to be around for them for as long as I wanted to be?

With regards to your original post, it looks like you found your lump the exact same way I did.

Still waiting for my biopsy results , should have been this week but due to Good Friday it's now 22nd.

They didn't tell me too much at the time , small lump and calcifications so I was thinking DCIS at the worst but the other day I got the letter that the Consultant sent to my GP and for the first time I saw the word "spiculated mass" , and the Doctor also told me I must bring someone with me for the results so it's pretty much convinced me to expect a cancer diagnosis.

Wishing you all the best for your treatment and recovery and I hope the MRI brings you some good news.xx

p.s. I don't think anyone will judge you for the wine today.

Hi Lops,

I'm so sorry your news was bad. I hear you, fearing for you husband and children. Everything must feel so overwhelming (btw I think the wine on this occasion is probably ok!)

I wish I had something more helpful to say but I don't really, just that I'm thinking of you and it sucks that life can be so unfair.

Sending you hugs
