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!

  • Thank you everybody! Yes it is a relief I feel alot lighter now. This is my 4th 2ww cancer referral (all for different reasons) and each time it has been benign I feel very lucky and was sure I wouldn't be as lucky this time. Its the waiting for the results that is the hardest and I do feel for anybody going through it, the sheer panic that comes and goes is unreal. Then accepting your own death, even before your results are in its madness! What a rollercoaster! 

  • What fabulous news . The metal clip you are talking about, did they call it a marker at any point? I had a marker put in so should they need to find that site in future they can. I am sure they ca led it a clip at some point. As I said (after it had been done), I wasn’t keen on the idea of a piece of metal in me, they showed me a piece of card with one on it, she got me to run my hand over it It was tiny a lot smaller than a piece of grit. Made me feel much better knowing that. ️
