  • Hi DEF,

    A very warm welcome to our forum.

    I am so sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but glad to see that things are moving fast and that you already have a date for your biopsy next week. This is always a worrying time, until you know exactly what you are dealing with. Once you have a treatment plan, you can start to move forward and will begin to feel more positive. It is not at all unusual to find yourself crying a lot. Don't worry about this, as all those tears you shed are a good stress reliever.

    We are certainly very fortunate to have the NHS here for us in the UK and, despite the many complaints, I for one, am indebted to them. I am fortunate enough to be 14 years down the line from 2 bouts of breast cancer, within a year.

    I sincerely hope that your results don't take too long to come back and then you can start your treatment.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,
