Hello everybody first post here. I am frightened to death, i keep crying and just wish all this would go away.
I got recalled as my mammogram showed an area of concern. the doctor couldnt feel asnything or see anything on the ultrasound but then sent me for a core biopsy. i’m waiting for the results now and driving
myself insane with worry. I have mouth ulcers and cold sores all over my mouth. and the only way i get
to sleep is by drinking. i also have pain in my breasts and armpits which were not there before i had the mammogram reacall letter. so they must be phsychosomatic . I’m scared to death I’m going to die.
sorry the title of my post is misleading I meant to put breast and armpit pain
Hi, how’s things today? Just read your post… I too am having so much more pain following my biopsy. I cried like a baby after my mammogram and all through my needle tests and ultra sound as it hurt sooooo much! Now the bruising has gone I’m still in discomfort and my breast seems more mis-shapen and hard area to feel!!!?! So worried things have progressed faster following the rests!!!
im scared stiff… Got to go for MRI Thursday to see if or what’s going on deeper in breast!? Been told I’ve grade 2 lobular cancer and its 27 mm at the moment. Xxx sending hugs and keep posting!
I get my results tommorow I guess there’s a small chance its all benign but will have to wait and see. I’m terrified and I know I wont be able to sleep tonight. pains everywhere. the strange thing is I wasn’t going to go for the mammogram at all. but whilst looking at the invite letter and pondering a voice in my head told me I must go and it was important. and waiting for the letter after the mammo I just knew I’d get recalled. as for the results I have no sixth sense there unfortunatly, sometimes I feel confident other times I’m a wreck, just want to know now.
So I have my results. doctor looked straight at me and didn’t beat about the bush.‘we have detected cancer’
I just burst into tears. felt such an idiot I really didn’t want to cry but couldn’t help myself. she said it’s very small. and something about grade 1 . but I’d just switched off and couldn’t take it all in. I have to have a lumpectomy and radio for 3 and a half weeks. and then Tamoxifen. so much to take in. i know I’m not the only one ,loads go through this all the time. and worse than me too. I really have to get a grip of myself.
Mildred. I had a grade one. Had a lumpectomy and now having radiotherapy. I was emotionally drained in the beginning, rarely wanting to get out of bed, but once I’d had the op and the results confirmed it was a grade one, it was a huge relief. I had a painful boob and armpit but it all disappeared the day after op! It’s the best outcome you could hope for considering it’s BC. Best of luck. Ces
