Hi Pampers,

That all sounds pretty positive, doesn’t it? Fingers crossed that the phone call confirms that. I’ve got my appointment for results on Thursday morning and I’m really anxious. I’m fully expecting bad news and my emotions are all over the place xx 

Gooner 

stay busy busy Thursday will. Be here soon  and hopefully it’s good news for you too xx 

Thank you. I’m crazy busy with work, and for once that’s probably a good thing xx

Sending lots of positive thoughts for tomorrow  .

Biopsy done for me today, bit of drama as I'd been forgotten about, sat in the waiting room stressing for over and hour, my paperwork had gone to the wrong place. Then further delays as no one had done my magnification mams so couldn't have the biopsy without it. 

Then to top it off, the radiologist said the abnormality is on rightie not the leftie! All that pain I'm having in my left, and that's apparently the normal one! I suppose it was a blessing, leftie is very sore today, I'm not sure I'd have tolerated the stereotactic on that one. 

Biopsy itself wasn't too bad, staff were lovely and made the experience so much better.

All the best for tomorrow, thinking of you xxGoonerGirl68 

Goodness, I’m sure you could have done without all of the added hassle.  It must have been a shock to find there is a problem on the other side, and not where you thought! 
I found the staff lovely too- it made such a difference. 
Thank you for your good wishes- I’ll let you all know how I get on tomorrow xx

Hi Pampers,

I'm glad to hear that your biopsy has now been done. You must have got quite a shock to find that they were interested in the breast that hasn't been causing you trouble. I hope that you get your results tomorrow and that the "abnormalities" check out ok.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

HI Jolamaine yeah it was a bit of a shock but also better in the end. Still struggling with the left, it's on a par with the biopsy pain which is annoying. I love sleeping on my front/side and I can't cos they're both tender (sulk).

I've got my letter today from the initial appointment, stating that left was normal, right is M2/3 a 3mm calcification seen. It's actually amazed me what can be picked up on these scans. I'm a bit more content now and will sit and wait without overthinking too much. I know it could change but at least I've got an understanding now of what's been seen.

So nice to be able to just chat about this stuff on here :)

How are you doing?GoonerGirl68 

Hugs to anyone out there who is struggling and anxious x

Hi Pampers,

I’m fine thank you- able to talk to people about my diagnosis now without feeling upset. It’s everyone else that’s now shocked! Also realising how common it is. MRI on Monday and I will be glad when that is done, just in case they should find it’s bigger/ worse than other scans have suggested xx

Hi Gooner,

So sorry I didn't see your other comments on other threads. Hecky thump. Sounds like you've got some good plans made with your health care team and they're being very thorough :)

Gentle hugs x

Don’t be silly- there are so many comments from lots of us on different threads- it’s tricky to keep up.

Yes- I’ve been thoroughly checked and it’s all happened quickly. I certainly have no complaints, and now I’m talking to people about it am realising how conning it is. I’m confident that I will be fine by Christmas :) xx

Just an update on me. Had my phone consultation today and it was good news. My microcalcification on my right boob is benign on biopsy and the MDT peeps were in agreement that i don't need further follow up at this time given the information in my scans and biopsies and exam. There was no sign of abnormality in the biopsy despite the mammogram being a little suspicious.

It was a scary time, the waiting is horrible, it's hard to think straight and is very easy to drift down a dark path. I am at least aware of what lies ahead now when it comes to my time for routine mammograms in 6 years time. I've had the iffy calcifications and the biopsy, I know what to expect if it happens again and now the drs have images to compare to next time. 

My leftie painful/burning boob which I was referred for in the first place is suspected to be hormonal and I'm keeping tabs on that. 

Google is absolutely not your friend folks! Trust your breast team, they are the experts, the 2 week (or more!) wait is horrible but things do move quickly after the initial appointment if you need further investigation.

Wishing everyone the best of luck in their journeys :)

Hi Pampers,

Many thanks for the update. I'm absolutely delighted to hear that you got good news today and hope that things continue to go well for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
