Waiting in biopsy been told highly suspicious

Hi everyone,

I am going out of my mind with worry. I found a lump and mass in my breaat last month. I was referred to the breast clinic and had a one stop appointment last Monday. I have an ultrasound first where they found another lump and "worrying areas". I then had a mammogram and 3 biopsies. I had the titanium clips put in then another mammogram. 

I have been toldthr imagines are highly suspicious of a breast cancer. They are reviewing my biopsy results on Wednesday. I am petrified. I have 3 small children and I just  cant stop crying.

Not sure what advise I'm looking for, I just needed to write it down I guess

    Hi all, thank you for the chats. I had my results today and unfortunately it is breast cancer. I haven't been told which one but I have been told its hormone receptive and can be treated. More tests and then a treatment plan.

    Hi Lou

    I wanted to give you some time before responding. Sorry you now find yourself going through what we have been going through for a while now.

    Hopefully things will begin to move at some pace now and you'll get your scans and treatment plan within the next week or 2. Once you have some sort of plan put in front of you, it can help take your mind off other things. My wife actually found it to be more calming once everything was laid out in front of her. Her cancer is also hormone positive. Which will open up more treatments to yourself. In a bad situation, that is a good thing. My wife, once she is over covid, will commence with her treatment next week. She has had a very good response to the treatment. Which is almost expected, so there's that.

    Please continue to use these forums as the support here has been nothing short of fantastic. also going back to your original post, please never blame yourself for this, and nor are you placing any burden on your family. No one asks for this. It's simply sheer bad luck.
