If it turns out to be the worse how long?

Hi Crehensal,

Sorry you are feeling so bad. I had a biopsy a week ago yesterday and also get my results on Monday.
I was really in shock for the first few days but I have read lots of the comments and advice on this site and it has really helped me.

My consultant said it was 50/50 and we wouldn’t know anything for sure until the results were back.

Chin up.

I have just heard about a 20 year mets survivor (that’s where it has spread to other organs in the body). She is a lawyer and is still practicing.

If you have primary breast cancer - ie it is contained within the breast, surrounding tissue or lymph nodes - there is every chance it is completely treatable and you will live to be an old lady.

Thanks for that - I already am an old lady - 65!!!
