Distractions while waiting for biopsy results

Hi all,

for those who have had a biopsy, how the hell did you distract yourself while waiting for over a week?

I only had the biopsy yesterday and it's so hard to function. I have spent the entire day either in panic mode, which I quickly tell myself is silly because it COULD be nothing. But then when I allow myself to think it could be nothing, I start to think "what if" and feel like I need to be prepared. I have work, and a 2 year old daughter to look after and I already feel like I'm not in the room and it's only been a day.

I have BRCA and my mum died of breast cancer when I was 11. So I'm just reliving so much childhood trauma and struggling to keep positive, even though I'm not allowing my husband to see that. thanks

  • Hi, I'm just feeling weird. I'm now so certain that it will be nothing that I'm worried how I'll feel if it's not because I just can't envision that scenario now. Does that make sense? I'm trying to just be realistic and think it's 50/50 but my head can't actually go down the bad route. How are you doing? When will you hear? Xx
