Breast lump biopsy results aug 21st, anyone want to wait with me?

Hello, I already have a few posts on here but for anyone who hasn't read them, I found a lump last week and was reffered to the breast clinic under the 2ww. I went yesterday and they have done 3 core biopsies on the lump and suspect it maybe a papilloma which they said would need to come out if it was. I was due to get my results on the 14th but as I'm going away for 10 days on Monday my appointment has been put back to the 21st. I'm so anxious and scared, not sure if I'll be able to enjoy my hols. Dont even want to go now if I'm honest but cant let my children down, id rather stay and get the results earlier but I haven't told family as my cousin was diagnosed with bc last year.

Anyway is there anyone else with appointments coming up or test results? We could chat together and try and help each other through this horrendous waiting. Thanks for reading!

  • Hello ladies, just thought I'd write an update. Was supposed to have my appointment on the 22nd, but on my way home from Cornwall today I had a telephone call from the breast nurse. She said the biopsy results show I have a solid benign cyst! Phew! All that worrying during my holiday, imagining it would be the last time I'd be on a beach, I wish I knew before but oh well cant be helped and I'm glad the waiting is over with great news! I explained that my lump seems to have doubled and she said that's normal because I had 3 biopsies took and ill still be swollen, but my body should reabsorb the cyst on its own as they drained off what they could at the time but couldn't on the solid part as they didn't know what it was (told me it looked like a papilloma) if the lump doesn't go ill have to go back to see my gp but for now I'm discharged, just can't wait for the lump to dissappear! Dont know if ill be able to feel the metal clip they left inside as I have no idea how big it is.

    Just wanted to thank you all for all your support, I didn't tell anyone apart from my partner so it's been nice to be able to talk freely on here!
