Started to feel really anxious and only having my MRI tomorrow followed by consultation with BCC on Thursday. While he was quite positive when I saw him 3 weeks ago I feel really edgy today. I just feel its going to be negative on Thursday. I guess this isn’t helped by the fact that when he gave me the diagnosis I didn’t ask any questions about type, grade, hormone recptive etc, so now I am filled with questions( I have written them down for Thursday).
What will be, will be I guess.

Hi Sam,
Welcome to the BCC discussion forums where I am sure you will get lots of good, honest support from the many informed users of this site, but if you need a good listening ear then our helpline is just a free phone call away, 0808 800 6000 lines open Mon-Fri 9-5 and Sat 10-2.
Take care,

Edginess is natural am trying to tell myself that I had a WLE and a SLNB last Wednesday and realised I never even asked the surgeon how it went no questions at all what a wally I feel right now am going to see him on Friday for results and will make sure I have them written down this is a great place to come to vent ones frustrations and I hope all goes well for you :))
Samjs, don’t beat yourself up about not asking questions, they only have a preliminary view from the biopsy, at my hospital they don’t tell us anything apart from the size on ultrasound because they know this can change once the full pathology is known.
Let us know how you get on x
Thanks for the replys, Jo, Loobyb and chascat.
Nervous wreck today but OH has taken me out for breakfast… good job I don’t have a bad heart, it was a full English! Then we did some shopping buckets and spades for my school trip on Friday.
BCC won’t know what has hit him when I see him on Thursday, he will think he is on Mastermind with all the questions I want answers to. I have the same consultant as my mum (she had mx 2 weeks ago) and we are total opposites, she wants to know nothing. He is not going to get such an easy ride with me! (Poor man)

Well today is the day I get my results from my MRI and date for my op. Actually feel less anxious than I did the other day x
Good luck, at least the waiting is over
take care karen x
Unfortunately yesterday didn’t happen. I got home form work at lunch and got a call to say they were rescheduling the appointment as only one consultant had seen the MRI report and at least 2 need to see it. I was so upset, angry and felt sick, all the build up for nothing. So now I have to wait until next week.
Sam still waiting! x
