Hi Rainbow, 

Sorry to hear that you are going through this. Can't offer any particular advice at this point but only to say you are not alone. 

I had my biopsy yesterday, having found calcifications so like you am awaiting the results. 

The odds are on our side but I totallybunderstand the waiting and worry is just horrific. 

Stay strong and really hoping for the best outcome for you on Friday x

Hi positive,

Thanks for your reply,sorry to hear your going through the same worry. It's so hard just think straight and stay positive isnt it. Wanst sure if the odds were on our side because I stupidly looked on google and it's all very mixed information. Stupid of me to think otherwise just sheer desperation I think. Dud your drs give you any indication of the outcome? Xx

Oh my god - that is so s*** - excuse my language!

I appreciate that things get held up etc but to not even tell you until 6 hours beforehand - you must be fuming but also just stressed about the further waiting.

I'm really sorry this has happened.

Sounds like we both need to try and keep busy this weekend to be as distracted from the anxiety as possible.

Stay strong and hang in there - sending hugs xx

Can I ask what area you are in - just wondering how things differ from one place to the next!!

Hi

Oh believe me I've done a hell of a lot of swearing this morning. I prepared myself for a call maybe yesterday about cancelling but thought with appointment day arriving I was good to go. Feel like I'm back to square one,it really is ***. I'm  in Manchester.....where are you at? If think we both definitely deserve a drink or two this weekend. How are you feeling? Xx

I don't blame you - swear away!! I think you deserve to vent!

And you're right - we both deserve a drink! I will treat myself to a beer or two watching the rugby tomorrow haha!

I'm in Basingstoke in Hampshire. Looks like both Basingstoke & Manchester get their results on a Wednesday!

I'm feeling ok - struggling to concentrate on work today (hence why I'm replying to this rather than writing a report) and glad that it's the weekend.....Monday will feel a step closer to results day!

Xx

A very well deserved beer at that.....its so hard to concentrate of anything isnt it,just feel like your making progress with being positive and then your mind goes for a wander AGAIN.....I'm not doing myself any favours though I've no appetite and struggling to sleep. I'd be happy to set up brandy intravenously until tues evening!! I didnt realise they only got results on a certain day,if that's the case then they would have known about mine two days ago. Xx

Oh, I don't know if they only get results on certain days - but was told mine are back on Wednesday aswell so was just being facetious! I am sure if they knew two days ago they would have informed you sooner.

I definitely know how you feel with the mind wandering - it does my head in. Fine one minute then having a little cry the next (I find this happens when I'm driving.....not ideal for concentrating on the road haha!).

My sleeping hasn't been too bad but going to bed later then usual so am extra tired when I'm trying to fall asleep. Plus I'm a six hours a night kinda girl anyway so never been huge on sleep!.

Hang in there! We've go this x

That will be me clinging on to any little detail then turning it into a huge one!! Doing that with everything at the minute. Oh no the driving situation not good hey....I get the kids to school and work but dont remember how I got there ha ha.....really want to thank you for saving my sanity these last couple of days as much as I dont want you to be going through this,its also a comfort to talk to someone who is. I struggle to keep my eyes open before 9pm but then wide awake from 3am onwards. Hope you have a quick weekend and enjoy your beer tomorrow xx

No problem at all - and thank you to you too! It really feels like we're in the same boat so can truly understand the horrible-ness of all the waiting and uncertaintly - getting our results will only be two days apart so pretty much in it together! I value chatting too :-)

I do that too - espcecially journeys that I do every day - suddenly you've arrived and can't really recall how because mind was elsewhere!

Enjoy the brandy - you deserve it! Chat soon x

Morning 

How you doing? Hope you managed to switch off and keep busy over the weekend. I've really tried to switch off but back in the spiral of stupid thoughts again today and tomorrow morning cant come quick enough. Sad to say but I'm just as worried about my appointment being cancelled again,dont think I could wait any longer I'm exhausted with it all x

Hi!

Yeah I did OK over the weekend keeping occupied and distracted. Today not quite so good. A lady at work asked how I was (she knew nothing was just being nice) and I burst into tears on her!! Oops! The spiral returns here too. 

Really hope that your appointment goes ahead tomorrow. I can't possibly imagine that they will postpone it again. What time us your appointment?

Roll on tomorrow!

Sending positive thoughts x

Hi

Sorry to hear that but sometimes that breakdown gives you more strength in a strange way. Funny how someone being nice to you can do that isnt it. I keep telling myself not to worry as I'm sure they couldn't change it again.....but I think anything is possible at the moment. Only blessing out of them changing the appointment is it's now a 10 am one. I feel ready for whatever is is I just need it regardless.

Sending hugs back and hopefully we will be both back on track come this weekend xx

Thinking of you today. I have everything crossed for good news for you. 

Take care and let me know how it goes. Xx

Thank you xx

Hi 

Sorry for the late reply but I think I was in a state of shock and relief and took myself to bed. I got good news and was given the all clear which is fantastic and I'm over the moon about and today can finally absorb the good news. Very strange as you think I would have been jumping for joy yesterday but it was all very strange and just completely felt numb. I'm sending you my luck that I had yesterday with me and preying you get the same outcome. Hope your ok and tomorrow isnt far away now xxxx

Yay!

This is such amazing news and I am so happy for you. What a relief - glad it has now sunk in and you can get on with your life minus that hideous anxiety! Fantasitic :-)

I will let you know how I get on tomorrow - fingers crossed!

Enjoy this feeling xx

Thinking of you today,sending big hugs xxxx

Let me know how you get on x

Thank you. Xx

Hi!

Not such great news for me unfortunately. I have DCIS confirmed from my biopsy.

So now a whirlwind of appointments starting with bloods, MRI, blah blah blah and then surgery booked in for 10th March. Will be having a lumpectomy with bilateral reconstruction (so I'm not too wonky). Hopefully no further treatment will be required after that but will depend if they find anything unexpected following the op.

Feeling OK. Had prepared myself for this so not too much of a shock!

Thank you for your support these last couple of weeks I have really appreciated it x

Hi 

I am so sorry to hear this,you sound so positive and strong keep going in that direction. I've been thinking about you all day and hoping, well you have you plan all set out for you and you will come out of it all a stronger person. Hopefully it all goes quick and your already booked in. I'm always here if you want to vent or moan. I'm absolutely gutted for you really am......its friday go and get that well deserved beer,sending you the biggest bloody hug and love xxxx

Thank you!

I think it's right that you do all the worrying when waiting and now I know what I am dealing with just want to get on with it and get it out!

Thank you for thinking of me. I will carry on keeping you updated!

Sent hubby out to get me some wine so will have a relaxing evening.

Have a great weekend x
