Biospy results day!!

Hi everyone, so scared today is the day of my biospy results, when I had it done 2 weeks ago the doctor came after and told me he is 90% sure its cancer. Am I stupid that a part of me still hopes that's it isn't guna be cancer? I know the doctor told me he is 90% sure it is and they have caught it early and it hasnt spread, so he was basically telling me then that's it was. Or am I being stupid and not listening to the doctor and that he told me that so I wouldn't get my hopes up? 

Thank you for reading. 

Sending love to all xxx

  • Nah, no one will knock you for clinging on to some hope. My wife was told they were 99% sure, and we were to use the time between the biopsy and the results to get our head around it. There were still times we clinged to that 1%, but we ultimately used the time to get some acceptance. Simply because it saved us having to pick ourselves up from the floor twice over. So when the day came, it wasn't a ground breaking revelation. I hope that makes sense.

    The reality is, whilst they do get it wrong, it's rare because they see this on a near daily basis, so they do kinda know. But someone has to be in that 10% you talk about. So why not you?

  • So sorry to hear about your wife, the time invetween its a horrible time, I k ow I kept thinking did I hear the doctor properly. Have had my result and they have come back as triple negative breast cancer, and need some scans and then qill soon start chemo in a few weeks, it's scary bit it feels better now that I kmow what is happening as the last few weeks I got told I basically had it then was told to wait to week for results atleast know I know what the future holds I guess. Thank you for writing back to me x 

  • Sorry to hear that. My wife had triple +. Waiting for scans and the results is also awful as far as the mental side of things go, but once you have those under your belt, things tend to get easier mentally, because like you said, you know exactly what you're dealing with and there's a plan put into action. Mentally, my wife found this part the worse. The not knowing.
