I am so pleased to hear this. I am day one of the seven day wait for biopsy results ! I waited five weeks to get a large cyst aspirated to find out three weeks later it had returned then scan today found second lump that was solid feel like I'm on a rollercoaster!! I had written myself off just before Christmas to then get good news to now start the process again ‍♀️

Hi Angel,

I am so sorry to hear that your cyst has filled up again so quickly. Having had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 11 years, I know how dashed you must feel, having thought that you were all clear at Christmas.

I sincerely hope that nothing untoward is found in this new lump.

Do please let us know how your biopsy results go. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine I don't know much of your story but looking at your kind responses and clear understanding, can I just say I am in total awe of you already and think you are an amazing person ️

I had a core biopsy done 2 days ago, lymph node and lump which is under nipple. I waited for screening to get checked because of COVID and now feel incredibly stupid for leaving it so long. I believed it was just cysts that had previously been diagnosed but obviously there was something else brewing and now have to wait 2 whole weeks for results. I feel sore and aching all over but think that's just the shock although the bruising is quite extensive to my left boob. It just helps to know there's people out there willing to share as I feel a complete wimp. I'm 53 and have a lovely husband and grown up children so plenty of support at home but don't want to burden them with my anxiety. 

Thank you for your post.  I'm waiting on results and haven't slept for 4 days.  I just keep bursting into tears.  Keeping this to myself as don't want to panic my family.  I am petrified.  They have taken 5 biopsies and I thought just a cyst.  I am a cater to my sister with learning difficulties and if anything happens to me what will happen to her.  I am 49 and haven't had children so there is no one else to look after her.

im so scared 

Hi

I hope you don't mind me responding, reading your message reminds me so much of how I felt waiting for results after biopies.  I was 49 when this happened to me and I am the person who looks after my partner, as he has been chronically ill for years, we have no children, my family live abroad, and my fears were that I could not be ill, everything... bills mortgage all the household pressures are on me and I could not be the one to fall apart.

Looking back now nearly 2 years, I would say try to take this one day at a time, don't race ahead to what if... I was in such a state, and in the end it was ok.  There is no way to know if this will be ok for you yet, but try to make sure you eat and sleep if you can, you sound like a strong person and you will cope.

I hope you don't have to wait too much longer for the results, and I hope things will be ok for you x

I don't mind you responding at all.  Yes I'm taking it one day at a time.  I'm on my own today so I think my mind has been racing.  The tears just run down my face.  I just hope everything will be ok.  This waiting is so alwful.  My heart goes out to anyone else waiting for results.  
 

I think this Forum is really good for positive thinking from people.  I also think in losing two very close friends with breast cancer that hasn't helped.  You forgot about all the survivors out there just the worse.  
 

take care everyone 

Let's do this one day at a time and fill our heads with good thoughts. It's not easy but it'll make the waiting more bearable.

Look after yourselves x

Hi JenStatistic,
