Hi , have clinic today.rigid with fear, have not allowed myself to be too worried until now but has hit me that I am totally unprepared if they tell me I am positive. I am inclined to be a silly and teary when anything going on so know I will not ask the right questions. Can’t help thinking if this is last Christmas with my kids… Am lying in 4 year olds bed at moment hugging him. I know this is prob a moment of panic but feel sick with fear.D x
Hi, Im new here as I was only diagnosed yesterday and Im sure others with more experience than me will answer you, but I just wanted to say whatever happens today, you couldnt be in better hands.
A lovely doctor explained to me exactly what was my lump was and what was going to happen next. With her, she had the breast care nurse, who is now my point of contact, I have her direct number and I can ring her any time with any question.
Are you taking someone with you? They can then ask any questions you may not think of and more importantly hold your hand!
I hope it is good news for you and you need none of this.

Hi, I’m also going for my results today and my stomach is all knotted up too. Trying not to get too tearful and telling myself positive things about how to handle it if the news is bad etc. My husband will be with me and this will help but it is so scarry. Telling myself to put on a brave face because my twin sister has had to deal with this twice over 20 years and she has been so brave and supportive to others. She doesn’t know yet and the hardest thing will be to tell her. I will be thinking of you and hope that you have good news - if not then there’s nothing to be done but fight on and be as postive as you can! My sister is a good example and a fighter!
