Hi Sarah,

This will be a very scary time for you. I too have lobular breast cancer in left breast, lesion approx 48mm.

Diagnosed 2 weeks ago after mammogram, ultra sound and biopsy. I have since in the the past two weeks had an MRI scan with contrast, biospsy on lymph nodes and a prone biopsy on right breast for micro calcifications which may or may not contain cancer cells. 

I understand exactly what your going through as does everyone in this club that no one wants to be a part of :sad:

I have my results appointment next Wednesday and will know the complete outcome and treatment plan. Im working full time but thankfully can work from home so no need to dress up and put on makeup cause to be honest just not feeling like I want to!  Keep working, it takes your mind elsewhere and the worrying is not as bad. Please talk to people, it makes the world of difference, like you my company have been amazing, I can work if I want to or not depending on my mood which helps. Sending you positive vibes (sounds like love island !) and hugs.

PS, my boobs look like someone has jumped up and down on them, bruised and sore so expect the worst but hey the tests have to be done to rid us of this damn awful *** cancer ! xx Jules xx

For me I found a lump and because of my age decided to do an ultrasound and from there decided biopsies would be a good idea, dont think anyone expected it to come back as cancer. My boss has decided I should take another week or 2 off just so I'm not juggling my own patients along with phone calls for appointments for myself, being a nurse its not ideal if I go in and can't get my head in the game so i agreed and hopefully by then a plan will be in place and all relevent tests are done, I've still to have ultrasounds and the mri the mri is booked a week on Friday and not heard from ultrasound yet so hopefully hear from them soon.

At the appointment when I got told the mcmillan nurse that joined the consultant/surgeon that told me discussed egg collection which I'm going for so will probably put treatment back for me by a week or two but from what they said a week or two won't make much difference. Just such a hard thing to get my head around, still feel like I'm having a bad dream and I'm going to wake up though it is starting to hit home now I've had the mammogram done and every so often feel myself wanting to cry. I am trying to keep busy though even though I'm not at work to give me something to do and keep my mind off it.

Fingers crossed the calcifications don't have any cancer in them. Please let me know how you get on.
