Hi, like all of you I never thought I'd be posting here, but here we all are!

I was referred to the breast clinic and had my appointment on Monday. The Dr told me he didn't think my lump was anything to worry about but as I was there he'd do an ultrasound. Cut along story short I'm currently waiting for results of a biopsy of a lump in my breast and Abiopsy of  suspicious lymph nodes in my arm pit. I am absolutely terrified! I asked if they thought it was cancer and they said they were concerned. 

Sorry for going on but I needed to get it of my head.

    I had my appointment on Tuesday but had a similar experience. The Dr said he thinks it's a fatty lump but had the ultrasound and they said there were suspicious areas so they wanted to biopsy. My results appointment is in two weeks so just waiting here too.

     Really hope you get good results and they were just being thorough x

    Oh bless you, the waiting is awful! I literally go from thinking I'm going get told is incurable to oh well. 

    I just want to know. I get my results next Thursday. I dread every time the phone gose in case it's them telling me I need to go straight away! Honestly I'm such a wreck. 

    How are you feeling?

    I really hope that your results are positive. X

    Thank you, I am trying to stay positive and keep things normal for my young children but today has been hard. I have felt very emotional today and cried quite a bit while the children were at school and preschool.

    I am worried what they will say and just want to know. Next week's half term here so that will speed things along hopefully and make it go fast. Mines not till the following Friday but will just throw myself into something like decluttering or something useful. 

    My mum passed at 51 from.breast cancer so that's playing on my mind too. I am only 30 so hopefully age is on my side. 

    Hope the week passes quickly for you x

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your mum. I'm not suprised it's playing on your mind.

    I'm trying to stay positive too, my kids are older than yours(19 and  15) and they've been fantastic in keeping me from negative thinking. But like you when they aren't around I've cried a lot. Today has been a little better. 

    I feel like the waiting is the hardest part, I need to know, even if it's not the news I want to hear. 

    I hope you get to enjoy half term with your children and not let this get in the way.

    Here's hoping the time passes quickly for both of us. X
