Breast biopsy results appointment - due to speak with the consultant on Tuesday. I'm so anxious waiting for the results

I was referred to the breast clinic by my GP after noticing dimpling and a lump in my right breast. I was seen on the 5th February and was sent for a mammogram, and ultrasound which was followed by a biopsy (9 samples in total) the consultant who did the ultrasound and biopsy did say that it appeared suspicious when I asked if she could tell anything from the scan. She also asked that I had a breast MRI within 7 days. The results are now back and were being discussed in today's meeting, I received a call this afternoon to attend a face to face follow up with the consultant on Tuesday. I'm so anxious waiting for the results, is it a good sign that they don't want to see me sooner than Tuesday? Would they tell me over the phone if it was good news? I've spoken to a few people and none of them were sent for an MRI at this stage, should I be more worried that this is a bad sign? I've gone down the rabbit hole that is google and I'm just looking for reassurance or advice from people in the same boat or going through the same thing x

  • Hi MabelJ1983.  The waiting is the worst bit of all as your head is all over the place.  Google is not a good thing because a lot of information is out of date and inaccurate.  I also had a MRI.  You have to try and keep busy until Tuesday.  I found the days okay but the nights is when my mind goes into overdrive.    You can't second guess if it is a good or bad thing.  When you go on Tuesday, take someone with you.  The nurses on here are also very helpful if you want to phone them and talk it through.  I am thinking of you and please let me know how you get on on Tuesday.  Big hugs.
