I have my results back from my WLE and SNB today and i’m in a right state. Is it normal to feel this bad?? My head is full of what if’s and if its spread, more operations etc.
I feel more scared now then when i was waiting for my results back from the biopsey and even more scared today then when i had my op. I couldn’t wait to get my results but now its here im all over the place 
hi pink princess
sorry you’re so anxious and yes, it’s normal! you know what to worry about now, don’t you?
i hope it goes well, what time are you getting results? it does seem that a lot of women have to have more surgery after a WLE and SNB and i know from experience that that’s the last thing you want, but it is manageable. i had WLE and ANC but had to go back for Mx. it was the worst news because i wanted to move forward in my treatment and it felt like going backwards, but basically it was only a setback not a disaster. am over the Mx now, about to start chemo.
good luck and let us know how it goes

Hi Pink Princess
I remember that feeling well, its very normal to feel like this. Fingers crossed they have clear margins and you dont need any more surgery but if you do you will be fine and get through it
Thinking of you x
will be thinking about you Pink Princess please let us know how things go.
I am worried that when I eventually get my results day I will be that worked up I won’t hear a word they say a bit like when I was diagnosed all I heard was blah blah blah!
best of luck sweetie xxxxxxx
Hi
I get my results on wednesday and I am really scared as well, not sleeping well and very worried but I am thinking that at least there will be a plan and I can move forward. Am going to take notes then at least I will be able to read them later when I hopefully calm down as when I am in there nothing goes in my head!!
best wishes and will be thinking of you M
Hi Pink Princes,
Keep pecker up, us ladies are with you in thought, my result on Thursday
like you i am dreading the worst news, bonus if it is good result.
Good luck for today
Thinking of you Pat xx
Thinking of you all whom are receiving results this week.
I get my results tomorrow - Regardless of the result the consultant stated he wants me to have Chemo as he likes to throw everything he can at it so i already know i have to travel that road and I have just about now got my head around what that entails.
I guess for me its the wondering whether he got clear margins and whether any of it was in my lymph nodes meaning more surgery…I just want to get my treatment plan underway which technically it is but more surgery does somehow seem like a step backwards - although its a life saving step so I will have to embrace that.
Besides the love of my family and friends what keeps me going is the sharing we all have on this forum…I have learned so much in the last few weeks, I have been humbled at all of our experiences…I have gained comfort from knowing that at those very dark moments I had in the last 4 weeks since discovering that lump in my right breast, all of us on here have either travelled that road or are currently in the middle of it and know EXACTLY how I feel which in someway gives me comfort to know im not alone, not going mad, not losing my mind…not crying alone.
There are some mighty strong women on here, and men. Each and everyone of us are unique and although I didnt choose to be part of this community, Im here, and have found it a community im now proud to be part of.
Love to you all xxx
Hi
Well said libralady and agree with every word you say. M
Libralady that was beautifully put think we are all so pleased that we have each other through this crazy time. Best wishes for your result day and my other ‘virtual’ friends too as you all know we have gone through this together think I am the last one with my result day of 10th November off to the doctors tomorrow to see if they can help bring it forward, I am going to tell them about all of you getting your results this week hopefully that should help.
Been thinking about PinkPrincess all day thats why I came on now to check for any updates hope she is ok x
Me too Sunflower - i keep popping on to see if she is OK. No matter what the results - we are in it together.
I dont think I will sleep tonight…make it worse they always seem to make my results appointments late afternoon - its not until 3pm tomorrow - im gonna be pacing all morning…jut wanna get it over and done with so I can leave the waiting room.
Hey Ladies,
Well i was a complete nervous wreck in the waiting room and also being kept waiting more than an hour and a half after my appointment was due!!!
I have 8mm clear margins but was upgraded from grade 2 to grade 3. My noddles (as i call them) were clear too. Stress over but was a little upset about the chemo as they said i might not need it.
oh well 6 lots of chemo and 18 lots of herceptin - which means i have to cancel my trip to the maldives but as the surgon said SMALL PAIN FOR LONG TERM GAIN.
thank you for your lovely messages everyone and i wish the best of luck to the rest of the result waiters. I can honestly say now that now i know although it was good/bad news i can start planning
love and ((((((hugs)))))) to all
hey all,
i feel so much for you all, as i was in your positions 12 months ago. and remember the waiting and mix of emotions.
i started a thread called starting my pink road nov 15th, and i had regular people post, and we went through the journey togther, as were all dx around the same time.
reading all the posts here you may all want to start your own thread and use that to get you all through.
for me this forum got me through my pink road, and when i couldnt sleep or was worried i could post and know one of the pinkies would get back to me when they woke.
wishing u all hugs and luck. . xxxxxxxxxxxxxx you can soooo do this.
Me again,
sorry for the late reply have been out most of the day hospital then off to the doctors for the flu jab. I also have that fluid thing in my boob from the operation. Surgon said to leave it unless it gets worse. Also had a reaction to the steri strips they stuck on me.
Best news is though i can now have a soak in the bath yey hey hubby will be pleased as i was starting to have stinky armpits
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hello there, Oh, so glad about clear margins and clear “noddles” for you Pink Princess. Sorry you have to have the chemo/herceptin and cancel your trip to the Maldives, but think what Poppy’s put is a great idea for you to start a new thread for yourself and others who may be diagnosed round about now.
Good luck to everyone else waiting for results - it’s a year since my mx, and I know what waiting’s like. It’s the pits - luckily last week I got good results when I thought I’d got a local recurrence. I’ve never been so glad to be wrong!
Much love to everyone!

PS - Enjoy your soak in the bathtub! xx
hi pink princess
that’s good news, with a bit of bad. in the undergoing treatment category we have a thread for people starting chemo in november, you could join that?
and oh es do i agree with you on the benefits of a good bath. enjoy
judes xx
Excellent news on the margins and noddles pink princess. Pleased for you. I know its very daunting the thought of having chemo but its very doable and lots of helpful info and tips on this site.
Clare x
Truly awesome news Pink - im so pleased 
I understand the chemo is a bit of a bummer but its true - short term pain…long term gain.
Pleased you are ok with the results, how bad that they made you wait even longer at the hospital but at least you have your plan now.
So jealous about the bath! I now have stinky armpits and have to wait until 10th nov phewie hahaha
Got my results today,
Radiologist said she was concerned about two area’s when I had my biopsy, but surgeon only mentioned one tumour in right breast 12mm, early stages, he said ultra sound showed under arm clear, lumpectomy to be in about three to four weeks, will put die into breast to check nodes same time as surgery will get results in two weeks if cancer has spread they will do more surgery take out lymp nodes chemo etc, but he is expecting them to be clear, so will start rads for three to five weeks then start on tamoxifen for two years than something else for next three not sure what that was? I have to stop HRT right away and warned that I will have hormone crash, jezz not looking forward to that,
Surgeon said because I am fit and good health he would rather take the chance of maybe more surgery that to do an MX he called it breast preservation?
I feel so much better knowing this information as the waiting has made me a nervous wreck, I think I will sleep so much better tonight,
hugs to everyone waiting Love Hil
