Hi all
Quick update, I went to the breast clinic on 17th august and had mammogram, scan and sample taken. I was told I would get a letter within two weeks. Well I have got my letter, this morning, I have an appointment for the 7th Sept at 10.30. I am quite calm ! Not like I have been, ie either blubbering or terrified.
I suppose “what will be will be”
At the moment, this site is so important for me. I read such inspirational posts, they lift my spirits when I have a wobble.
Thank you
Angie
Hi Ohno
It’s exactly 4 years ago today since the ‘dreaded letter’ dropped through my door. My appt was for 6th September, can’t remember the time.
I had a WLE in 2007. I wish you very good luck with your appointment. It may not be what you dread so expect the best.
Love from me.

Hello Ohno - Even if its the news you dont want , you will be fine ! Remember 80% do not have cancer. BC is not a death sentence , the treatment is second to none and the range of different diagnosis is huge .
I am weel into my treatment now after being diagnosed in May , its dooable and we get on with it.
Keep Talking

My appointment was on 8th July and I felt so much better when I got some answers. The worst part is the not knowing. I’m sort of coming out the other end now, I had the lump and a couple of lympth nodes removed on 2nd August and then had to wait again… The news was good this time, no node involvement so I am on tamoxifen and have my planning session on Thursday for radiotherapy.
I still remember what it was like waiting just where you are at, like it was 5 minutes ago, I have never felt such fear in all my life. But once I knew I could get on with it and others have said most lumps turn out not to be cancer. Today is ok!

Thank you for your words of support and reassurance.
I am still in positive mode 
Having a cheeky glass of wine… what the hell … Iv’e done the house work and bathed my dogs (idle minds and all that).
Take care ppls

Angie, The Waiting Room is the worst place, and everyone on here knows exactly how horrible it is.
Well done for bathing the dogs, I bet you got wetter than they did! You may well find you have the cleanest house on the planet by the time your appointment comes along as you may find you just have to keep busy to keep your mind occupied. That’s fine and perfectly normal to do that (and when you’ve finished yours, do you fancy having a go at mine? My house is a state!)
NO glass of wine is cheeky in my opinion, I hope it was very tasty and it’s most definitely well deserved.
There’s lots of support on here for you, as you’ve already discovered, so let’s hope the news you get next week will be of the good variety.
Everything crossed for you,

CM… my house NEVER is the cleanest :)(ah well never mind)
Dogs, smell yummy
Wine is medicine and ALL donations are gratefully received (dry white) 
CM…sorry but my cleaning skills are VERY poor (more important things 2 do)… good luck in your search for a cleaner
Angie
Oh gosh, I agree we all remember THAT feeling…and the very moment we were given the results. And I also agree that most of the time the news are good. Do whatever it takes to get yourself through the time til the appointment (if not cleaning I find loud music good - although at the moment I’m too tired to jump around to it like a lunatic). Wine/Milkshakes/Chocolates/Takeaways are all allowed! Good luck! Tina x
Thanks Tina
Need clarification
Is that, Wine/Milkshake/Chocolate/Takeaway…at the same time ?
Sorry, me being silly x
If you really want to have them all at the same time - go ahead!
Yup, I could do all four… what a bloomin’ good idea for tea!
Many thanks… I am going to take them one at a time…I don’t fancy the repercussions
Angie
Much good luck with the results, hoping for the best. Its the worst time, but you will come out the other end.

Hi,
Firstly I want to say good luck with your results, I do so hope all is ok x
I too am waiting for that dreaded letter to come through my door, I suppose that I am quite lucky in that it was only a routine mammogram that I went for on the 24th Aug due to family history, so I haven’t got so much to worry about like some of you ladies on here, but it doesn’t stop me worrying hey…
I wish I wasn’t such a worrier, but the mammogram really hurt on my left breast so I keep thinking I am going to get a letter recalling me back?
best wishes to you all x
