Hi Casey
With your appointment you will get full details of what to expect but you will probably have a Triple Asessment: examination, imaging (mammogram and/or ultrasound) and maybe some kind of biopsy. Then you'll probably have to go back for the results if you have a biopsy. Try not to worry as most lumps are found to be harmless. Take someone with you to your appointment for reassurance and support. I'll be praying that your appointment comes through quickly and that you'll be ok. Take care, Amy xx

Thank you Amy. I'm hoping I get my app soon. I can't help feeling the lump and starting to feel sore, so need to try and leave it alone. Thank you for you reply. X

My husbands sick of seeing My boob and being asked do you think the indentation had got bigger? 
 

Also taking my husband. We can do this!! 
 

big hugs xx

This made me smile. I've just asked my husband if my armpit is swollen.

Yes we can 100% do this! Sending love and best wishes x 

Thinking of you both for tomorrow, Linda and Casey, and saying a prayer for you. I hope you are both sound asleep and get the best possible news tomorrow. Hugs xx

Thanks Amy. Had a very restless night.

how are you? X 

Thanks [@Amy321]‍ ,

not the best nights sleep but to be expected. Feeling slightly nauseous this morning but know it's just nerves. Spending some time sitting in the sun in the garden and pottering around until it's time for my appointment. Hope you are ok?

[@Casey123]‍ Good luck today, will be thinking of you! 

Hi ladies 

well after a long 2 hour wait, I got the all clear. I know I am very lucky, and I am so grateful. 
I'll be thinking of you this afternoon Linda, please let me know how you get on.  Xx
 

[@Casey123]‍ Absolutely thrilled for you!! Amazing news. You can sleep well tonight!! Xx

Hi Casey, as expected after first referral appt and imaging, it is BC. Not sure if lymph node is affected - need another biopsy to determine. I was elated to hear it is very treatable and hasn't spread all over my body as I had feared in my darkest moments. But today the reality of months of chemo then surgery is quite scary. I'm also very anxious about the wait before treatment can begin seeing as it's a very active cancer. Just got to trust that everything will be ok. 
How did you get on today? Thinking of you xx

Hi Amy

i am so sorry to hear of your diagnosis, but I am very pleased to hear the cancer is treatable. 
I can only imagine how daunting it must feel, thinking of the treatment ahead of you, including the mental and physical affects. This really is a cruel disease and I hate how so many of us have to go through this.

I think one day at a time is the best approach and be kind on yourself. It will take time to get your head around things, but I think once the treatment has started and you have a goal, you may feel better in control? 
please keep us updated and stay strong. I am sendinb best wishes amd a big hug xx

i feel almost guilty that I got good news today. I am very lucky and grateful  

Thanks for the lovely words and encouragement, Casey. You should not feel guilty at all. We're all in this war together and every battle won is something to be celebrated. I'm so very happy for you! I see it as an answer to prayer as I pray for everyone here as well as all the women I see at my appointments. Take care and stay healthy xx
