oh the waiting....drives you barmey doesn't it. Your in limbo.....I suppose the only why I got through the waiting was to expect the worse but hope for the best..( if that makes sense)
Even if it's bad news there's a whole host of treatments out there. It's no good me telling you not to worry because you will go ahead and worry anyway.
Do you work? Children?
Another thing someone told me when I was waiting for results was...it isn't anything until it is something...for some bizarre reason that struck a chord with me.....
fingers crossed for you love, pop back and let us know how it goes?
Yes I do work - I work as a clinical research scientist in Clinical Trials in Oncology - I know - a bad choice of career that I find myself to be in - right at this precise moment in time! What do they say ... too much knowledge and your brain works overtime - n'mind google .. it's all in my flippin head !!!
I am 49 - my son is 25 but I do have a grandson who is 1!
I am getting remarried in a few months, just sold my house, found a lump in my breast which turned out to be a cyst - but then they said - lets just have a look at your other breast - alarm bells kind of went off in my head like a siren and then they produced the needle for the biopsy ... with the loudest echoing sound in a room that is soooo quiet ...
But hey - whats another little problem to add to the stress ....Trying to keep my sense of humour in tack .. think I am going to need it this week ... but feel like I am failing miserably ....
I like the "it isn't anything until it is something" I should have that as an hourly mantra to get me through this!
PS I all think you are all amazing - your strength and courage is something to aspire too
Your a what what??? Oh blimey, yep, ignorance is bliss, especially in my case...I'm the warden of a residential home for the elderly so no inside knowledge for me..thank god!
Thank goodness they looked at your other breast, I think it's standard to examine both, when I went for my first mammogram after a year of cancer treatments, the radiologist said in passing.....oh, they've marked your other breast as suspicious too ( I never knew this and very nearly passed out with fright)!
Anyway, all good here ( finally) you'll be fine I'm sure, sounds like you've plenty to keep you busy! X
