Hi,

I was in your shoes 2 weeks ago! When I went to clinic (last Wednesday) I had mammogram and ultrasound. Radiographer was not worried about the lump/ swelling that has sent me there but said he felt something else. So he decided to do a biopsy there and then. It was nowhere near as bad as I would have expected. Practically painless. He put in a tiny marker for future ref, took another mammogram to be certain it was in the right place and that was it. A bit sore and bruised after but totally manageable.

I got a call today from consultant to say it was benign and doesn't need any follow up. So there are positive stories- try not to worry too much! Fingers crossed for you. Waiting is hard. I have an MRI on 21st Oct on pancreas so scared stiff about that!- Another waiting game :(

I hope all works out well for you. Take care. x

Hi

Thank you for replying. You feel so alone. Only hubby and my sister know..had to tell someone. Trying not to think of how to tell the kids if it IS BC. You can see I'm galloping down the road of scenarios. Which is worse making mental lists just incase? Or not in the hope you wont have to? Moved things around in 2 bedrooms yesterday just to keep me busy. If it's a 3 week wait this will be the tidiest house in the countyFell apart half way through tea...no apparent reason..wasnt thinking about it at the time. 

Lost my dad in July...this really easnt needed on top of all that.

Bonkers init xxx

Thanx Traciej

The calm voice in the storm.

Morning lovely, 

I have a my ore op assessment this afternoon and I will ask them what chances of my op being cancelled because I will stop off for more Gin on my way home if it's likely to happen. I am still Waiting for CT scan before op to see if my cancer has spread. I still swing from disbelief and despair to **** this I'm going to thrash the life out of this intruder. 
 

Thinking of you and feel your pain - just drive them crazy with asking when  xxx

Evening all

Hows everyone doing? Well spent the last two days not chilling. Got involved with  ASDA needing a kick up.the proverbial . Thats currently on a back burner awaiting a formal reply.

So...... this blasted toe hasnt got any better. Pootled off to see the practice nurse this afternoon. She had a look..Dr had a look.  Dressing on it and prescription for antibiotics.... while you're here we'll just check for Diabetes......... yep appears I have that too....another prescription and two appts next week for doplar and glucose levels. Whoever is writing my script? Dump the voodoo dolls for gods sake!!! Toe gets worse...A&E. 

Oh did I mention surgery rescheduled? On top of pills and potions I'm due in on Monday. Hopefully. 

I swear you couldnt make this up

Hey lovely was wondering how you were doing. I had ore op assessment yesterday. However big shock today - my husband's bladder cancer has returned.  ! Again you couldn't make it up! 

Oh no.... I'm so sorry to read that. Not what you needed at all.  Keep us up to speed. All here for you both.

Hi girls, was just checking in on you all. My god! You both really are having a truly awful time! As if cancer or the fear of, isn't bad enough you've got other shut to deal with! I'm hating life at the minute. I know that's terribly selfish of me, I'm not ill but life just seems so unfair to everyone atm

Love to both xxxx

Hi Traciej

Sorry...had the weekend from hell. So full of new meds I rattle. And they're making me feel sick!@  fluxo somethingorother anti biotics x 4 ....plus a diabetic tab x2

Didnt sleep at all hardly lastnight....upset stomach...sore toe. Still awake at half two.  Up at half 3.......up again at 5 then again at half 6. I swear to god I feel as if I've been hit by a truck!!

Missed at least 3 private number calls today..couldnt hit the button on my phone.  I'm about as much use as a wet lettuce leaf at the mo. Really really tired but cant seem to drop off for five mins.

Cant remember whether I mentioned the podiatrist? Seeing her on Tuesday....blood tests weds. 

The bonkers thing is I felt fine before the meds....now I feel flipping awful. I've missed calls from my breast care counsellor too........ weekend from hell.....

No energy.... this cant be right.  Hows everybody else?
