Waiting for results

HIi,

I had 3 biopsys done on Friday 5th November and am waiting for my results. I have already been booked in for an appointment on Wednesday 17th November and the Consulant said that I would have a mammogram and possible an MRI. I am terrified that it's cancer. I can't really remember what the consultant said, but she definitley used the words pre cancerous. There is 2 lumps apparently, one could be a cyst and another one the radiographer wasn't happy about..... The waiting is horrible.

Just wanted to post as it's hard to speak to the people in my life as they are understandably as worried as I am! 

  • Hi,

    Thinking of you. I am trying to keep busy with working full time but it's not easy at all as I just keep looking at my mobile in the hope they call but also feel sick at the thought of it.

    I haven't been given any contact details of a Nurse at all and didn't see one during my one stop clinic, just Consultants and Radiologists so I only have the Secretary details.

    I have decided I will call on Friday if I don't hear anything from them before then.

    Sending love and you are all in my thoughts today as the waiting is torture xx

  • I know that feeling of feeling sick with worry and struggling to focus on normal everyday stuff and work. Being a Mum and doing my Mum things for my son distracts me from it as you think I feel ok but what if its not ok inside me.

    The waiting has been awful and feel like I've aged in 3 weeks. Thinking of you x

  • So no more waiting.....

    had my meeting with the consultant who came in with the breast cancer nurse. So I am sure you can guess the results. Breast cancer. Larger area of DCIS and 2 smaller areas of invasive cancer. Next steps are mammogram (had today) and an MRI and then another meeting with the consultant on 1st December to discuss "the plan. ". 

  • Hi Ebby008

    I am so sorry to hear your news. You must be feeling shell shocked. Are you besring up ok?

  • Hi Ebby, I have been thinking of you today and keeping an eye on this thread incase you don't post on the other one. I'm sorry to hear of your diagnosis and just wanted to say that I am here to chat if you want to. In case I didn't tell you, I have two areas of different graded DCIS and an invasive tumour (it was the tumour that I originally was referred for). Anyway, I'm sending you virtual supportive hugs, love Mickey xx 

  • Hi Mickey,

    Thank you, I will probably need to chat but right now it feels so unreal. I knew it was going to be a cancer diagnosis when the consultant walked in with another woman who turned out to be the breast cancer nurse. xx

  • I don't know how I feel right now to be honest. Numb is the word that I would use. It doens't feel real. I think that once it has sunk in that I will begin to process it more. xxx

  • Hi Ebby, I totally understand you are shell shocked right now, knowing and then hearing are so different in how we react. Whenever you are ready, I'm here privately or in feeds whatever suits you best. Massive supportive hugs Mickey xx ️

  • It's incredibly early days. Look after yourself and just take one day at a time.

    Sending you so much love

  • Hi Ebby,

    I am so sorry to hear your news. I had been thinking about you all day and you are still in my thoughts. Sending lots of love to you and your family.

    It must be a shock even though over the last weeks we have been through so many outcomes and what ifs in our minds. I don't know if you can fully prepare yourself and understand it's a lot to take in and process to feel like it's real. I'm here for you anytime on here or privately.

    I'm still waiting to hear. I did contact the Breast Secretary this afternoon and she said I would get a letter soon as MDT soon. I think it works differently in Scotland. 
     

    I will let you know but Im guessing the letter will have an appointment on it to meet. Just take it day by day xxx
