Awaiting biopsy results
Hi everyone ,
I have just joined today , I had biopsy of left breast on Monday and radiologist said 2.5cm worrying shape mass, I met the nurse who said most likely cancer, I will be getting my official biopsy results then, I havnt told my family yet, I am 55 and my daughter is back to work next week after maternity leave , it’s a tough time for her, my sons graduation next week , and he has had a tough time lately.
My head is all over the place and I feel like screaming and running for the hills , but trying to appear really calm.
I am due to work tomorrow and Friday , I work in a hospital , not sure what to do. Sorry for the rambling text , I am not a whiner , just trying to make sense if all of this , any help much appreciated xx

Hi ccpt
Thank you so much for your kind reply , it means so much .
Hopefully I will find out on Monday , the waiting is horrendous , especially when I havnt told my grown up children yet.
Very hard to pretend everything is ok , my sons birthday on Monday and graduation on Tuesday so I don’t want to spoil that for him . I am worried over my daughter going back to work next week , terrible to feel that you are letting everyone down by getting sick , which I know sounds daft.
Thanks again for your kind reply , I hope you are doing well and adjusting to all the changes .
Wishing you all the very best x

Hi. I'm looking for some advice. I was pregnant when I found a lump in my breast. Passed it off due to pregnancy. 8 months later wen it didn't go got sent to symptomatic clinic on seeing the consultant she seemed happy that it was a normal lump but said as I'm 35 she would do mammogram and ultrasound. They found a lump behind the lump that I could feel and asked to do a biopsy. They took biopsy from lump and armpit. After biopsy i seen consultant again and she told me about the other lump they found and that it will have to be removed regardless of results.Now waiting for results. Im convinced that I have cancer. Now looking like I won't have results until 2020. Waiting is horrible. Anyone have experience like this?
Hi, I know how tough the waiting is, honestly I’ve found that the hardest part. I had to wait 12 days for my biopsy results and honestly once I got my diagnosis I almost felt relieved. I’m not a patience person! But they don’t know just by looking on the day, not for certain. Know that you’re not alone. X
