Hi everyone,

I already did a first post after a very unexpected bc diagnosis last week. Veering between all the different feelings and emotions I’ve managed to pass the days and now my MRI is tomorrow. 

The only minimal info I currently have is ER+ grade 2, I don’t know how long it will take to get detailed results from the MRI. 

I already have a serious medical condition so I’m used to ‘coping’ but with this, I am finding the fear over-whelming and I don’t want to show it in front of my husband and children  - I didn’t sleep last night and not sure I will tonight.

I just wanted to connect with others who are going through similar.

Hi Louise, 

Sorry about your diagnosis. I was recently diagnosed too. I got my MRI results back next day and my consultant called me with my results. I know different hospitals do things differently though. The MRI went ok for me, only advice I would say is make sure you are comfy as you do have to stay in that position for a while. Mine took 25 mins.

Good luck with your scan today, I’m off for my pre-op and lymphodema appointments.
