Hi Hopeful, just wanted to say that I hope you get your appointment through soon. Your team sound like they are doing a very thorough job and best wishes for the results xx

Hi Case4 thank you so much for your very kind reply I feel they are being very thorough just worried about the outcome I suppose and the waiting like everyone else I have been lurking on here for a while since finding the lump in January.  They only confirmed it was a lymph node after the ultrasound and said eventhough the core biopsy was benign they wanted to take it out to further investigate because of the appearance and they don't think they got enough tissue during the core biopsy so I'm still feeling like I didn't get that phew moment when they said it was benign still more investigations to go if you get me just wondering if anyone knows how long it usually takes for these appointments to come through and what your experience was at the end many thanks 

Hi there I just wanted to update you and let you know I had surgery during the week and had 2 lymph nodes removed one was 2cm and the other was 3cm I have been given a 1 hour appointment for next week on Friday morning feeling a lot lighter now that the surgery is done and hoping the results are clear wishing all you lovely people all the best xxx 

Hi Hopeful,

I am sorry to hear that you need more tests. It's frustrating at the moment, but good that your care team are taking no chances. I am glad to hear that you have now had your surgery and that you don't have too long to wait for the results. Here's hoping that they turn out to be benign too.

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

Kind regards,

hello hope you are ok 

did you have to have a lumpectomy still when your biopsy was benign? Xx 

Hi Jolamine thank you so much for your lovely reply they were all so amazing in the hospital feeling very hopeful these will be benign too have been booked in for an hour long appointment on Friday morning hopefully this will be the end of it all now x hope you are all keeping well and thanks so much for taking the time to respond to me xxx

Hi laraj I had and excisional biopsy under general they weren't sure how many lymph nodes they had to take until they went in and ended up taking 2 the first biopsy I had back in end of march was benign but they weren't happy with it as they said the outline on ultrasound and mammogram was a little suspicious so they wanted to excise the 2 they took were 2cm and 3cm and have been feeling fine since the op not much pain at all and back for an hour long appointment on Friday morning for results so hopefully this will be benign too thanks so much for taking time out to reply and hope you are doing well xxx

Hopeful 

good that they have done extra checks hopefully Friday you will be free of it but can relax that you have had proper checks 

good luck with it all lovely I wish you a positive outcome xx 

Hi Hopeful,

Not much longer to wait for your results now, which is good. I sincerely hope that nothing untoward is found. Please let us know how you get on - I shall be thinking of you on Friday morning.
