Its just awful isn't it! :( 

I hope you don't have to wait too long for your appointment Dotty. 

I was shocked to hear so quickly! I know they say within 2 weeks but i was sure i'd be waiting that long. Will let you know how i get on tomorrow. Will no doubt be a long day and i'll be an emotional wreck. 

Thankfully as Marlyn said in an earlier post the odds are in our favour! Good luck to you both and yes, please keep us updated xx

That has been very quick maybe your clinic is just not as busy at tho mo , my appointments not till hust befour 3 witch i thought it would be much earlier ive got to find some one to pick my 4 year old up from school to he sences when im worried wpitch is awfull x

Yea most likely the reason, which isn't a bad one. 

I was lucky to get a morning appointment otherwise i'd have the same trouble :( All of this is bad enough without having to worry about childcare as well. I hope you find someone who is able to help with the school run. 

We just all need to try our best to keep positve, easier said than done though! xx

Wow thats great Kalaaxx, really quick in my experience.

Be prepared for lots of waiting around moving from department to another. I inititally saw a breast care consultant, then went for mammogram (this for me wasn't that bad I was expecting a lot worse) then to have the ultra sound, followed by biopsy, then back to consultant for results. Also be prepared to not know tomorrow, I had to wait for the biopsy results to come back, so another dreaded wait. 9 out of 10 woman walk away with relief so here's hoping you are one of them tomorrow.

Will be thinking of you and sending lots of positivity your way.

Hi Claire, 

Thank you so much for your reply! Wow lots of here and theres! I kinda just thought it was all in the same area, althought i guess it can vary between clinics. I'm quite happy to wait around though as long as it's being looked at thoroughly. 

I read somewhere that some results can take a week or so to come back. Must have been an awful wait for you :(

Fingers crossed!! 

Thank you so much! xxx

Hi Jadeh 1992

Just wanted to say to you I was exactly the same as you from time I found the lump, I had no positivity and was a wreck throughout whole process. Its ok to be not 'ok' remember and I completely understand how you are feeling. Monday will feel like forever away but you will get there, I recommend mindless tv or boxsets, these were my lifeline with the waiting. There is never a good time but bless you for going through all this now when you should be celebrating.

As I have said to Kalaaxx be prepared for a wait and that you might not find out the result on Monday. The NHS are absolutely fantastic I would consider going to your GP for advice if you continue to feel the same.

Feel free to contact me anytime take loads of care of you.

Hey 

Yep unfortunately I got to know R.D.& Exeter hospital very well, nearly collapsed when one of the departments I was sent to was nuclear medicine, think this was the ultra sound, but to be honest some of that time is a complete blur and others oh so real. The waiting really is the worst its so good that you are being seen so quickly.

Shout if I can help with anything, this time tomorrow you'll hopefuly be celebrating.

Good luck for tomorrow. Glad someone is going with you, husband could be beneficial (just in case it's bad news) but when he's self-employed it makes sense he works, as he could be there and end up with them not able to tell you much anyway.  As long as you have someone with you.

Will continue hoping it's something less serious than cancer.
