Results day tomorrow

Hi all,

Well my first ever attempt at a one at a forum, but I think I could do with some moral encouragement.
Age 38, in the British Army, don’t drink don’t smoke however; two weeks ago I went back to my doctor with a odd shaped lump, originally (Feb 15) they said nothing to worry about as only a few months after breast feeding stopped so I didn’t ask for it to referred. Thai time she told me the same but agreed I could go for an ultrasound. Both doctors at the clinic said that it felt fine but would check… 15 mins later I was sent for a mammogram and then within 30 mins had three core samples taken. Shocked was not the word. The nurse told me it did not look good but when my results where in they would have a care plan in place. From those words alone I have realised it is probably BC. I am terrified, I have had the emotional roller coaster for the past 10 days trying to be positive for all my family. Some days I am scared that my two Year old daughter will not get to walk to school with her mummy. Other days I think just a blip I can deal with. However 15 hours until I go back for my results and now cannot sleep or even seem to rest. I know that no one has the answer but any advice on approaching tomorrow would be great. Thanks in advance

I didn’t want to read and not reply. I’m going for my referral tomorrow, I’m 27 with a six year old daughter. I’m so sorry that you’re going through this. I know it’s difficult not to fall down the rabbit hole and think of all the awful scenarios, but hopefully your results will tell you tgat, if it is bc, it is treatable and it will be, as you say, a blip that you will overcome. I’m assuming that you now know what the results are being as you posted this yesterday, best of luck xx

Hi there,

Thank you for your kind reply. Yes I have the results and not great. I have to have a CT scan as its spread to my lymph nodes and I start Chemo in two weeks and then surgery after that they will check again.
I hope that you have an all clear at your referral.
