had my appointment this afternoon, wanted to admit me today for a few days to start draining my lung and also talked about ct & mri scans. due to having to sort childcare out said i will go in tomorrow at 12.00. bone scan was found to have abnormalities on it so absolutely devastated at all this. the doctor said they were deeply suspicious about the fluid on my lung. so watch this space in a few days i will know for sure and its not going to be good.
heartbroken putting my family through all this crap again and have a 6 yr old son.
any glimmers of hope would be gratefully appreciated tonight !!!
I couldn’t read and not reply. I know you must feel devastated and waiting on more tests and results is just the worst!
Large hugs coming your way to go with the large glass of wine.
Love

Hi Max,
I can understand why you feel devastated,i have a young family too and understand you’re feelings of being heatbroken it’s just more worry.Thinking of you, and hope you get some better results in the coming days.Love Lesleyx
i will be thinking of you too maximise and hope things turn out better than you expect, i too know the feelings of dread you are going through, but when your kids are young it is all the more heartbreakiing.
love reneexx
thank you so much girls for your replies. Feel this situation is highly surreal its not happening to me one minute i feel fine and the next i am in floods of tears. Its the day I think we all dread since our primary diagnosis. WHen first diagnosed with bc nearly 5 yrs ago my son was 14 months now he is 6. I am only 36 and although its something i have thought about every day cant believe its happening and it is happening this is the start of it all again. Hospitalised tomorrow for however long, scans etc not good.
TIme for another large glass i think !!!
Bless you Maximise. My twin boys were 14 months when I was 1st diagnosed, they are now 11 (me 44). All feels so unfair, so unjust. My heart goes out to you and everyone else reading this.
Hi Max
I have just read this and as a secondaries lady just wanted to let you know that there are many treatments available if your primary BC does show to have spread. There are also many ladies on these forums with mets in different parts and organs of the body who respond well to treatment and live life to the fullest they can - me included! If mets are shown then please start posting any questions on the secondaries part and someone is bound to be able to help or offer advice. Good luck with all the scans and I hope the results don’t take too long (the waiting is dreadful) and that they are not as bad as you may be thinking.

I’m another secondaries lady with a small child (3 yrs old). I’m currently stable on herceptin, and am much more hopeful about lifespan now than i was when secs first diagnosed summer 2008.
You’re in an absolutely ghastly place just now I know. I hope things move forward for you quickly, and if it is secondaries, that you get a treatment plan sorted out. And do come onto the secondaries part of the board, there are lots of us there.
Hi Max I read your previous posts and had been thinking of you. I am so sorry that you having to endure this horrible horrible time. I just want to add my hugs and best wishes too.
