Super Anxious and depressed 29 yo , waiting for results!!

hello everyone, my name is janay and im currently going through one of the worst things I’ve ever endured and really need some support and positivity. My Anxiety has been out of control!!!

ill give. you guys a quick summary. I am 29 , i will be 30 next month.4 weeks ago i discovered a small & ahrd bump in my right breast, middle close to nipple about an inch away from my nipple. I immediately freaked out because im someone who does self checks literally ALL the time, my breast are a B cup and fairly small so any changes i can feel pretty quick, I dont believe it couldve been there long because i do check all the time. IT seems to have appeared over night almost.

Background i am 29 with no Major health issues, I have never even had surgery.  im 5 foot 2 115 pounds. i have one child who is 12. im not on hormonal birth control, although i was from 17 til about 26. im on paragard now and have been for 3 years.

I panicked, went to dr they did an ultrasound, BI_RADS 4A 1CM Hypoechic Mass is all my report said really about the shape, and that findings COULD represent a fibroadenoma and that biopsy could verify this possibility. the bump is rock hard and mobile. No changes to breasts from what i can tell.

I have been literally losing it, my mental health is so bad, i feel like no one understands my friends or family, they just say itll be okay but they dont know that.

breast cancer runs on my moms side a bit, not from my mom but my moms aunts, two of them have had it.

i was doing somewhat better til i got online seeing TNBC ultrasound images that looked like a Fibroadenoma, I cant shake this feeling that im going to bed news, i didnt have this bad feeling til today, my Anxiety is so bad. 

I had my biopsy friday july 7, it was pretty painful. Luckily my dr and nurse were very nice and i asked him to please tell me what he thinks it is, good or bad , and he said he doesnt believe its malignant but cant guarantee.

i should have results by wednesday the 12th of july they have said, I do have access to the website my chart so i will probably check it tomorrow night after business hours. 

im afraid of what is gonna happen, did anyone else have this bad feeling and got good news? im sorry if i sound all over the place, im a mess lately.

thank you all for listening and many blessings to anyone currently battling and i wish you so much strength and healing!!!

I’m so sorry to hear what you’re going through, Janay. I can empathize:  I have a rushed biopsy tomorrow after a mammogram and ultrasound. My diagnostic radiologist gave me a BI-RADS of 5. I don’t think I have much hope of a non-cancer result, but I’m trying to be positive and not lose my mind! I have a few autoimmune diseases, including Type 1 diabetes, and I can see the stress in my blood sugar readings even though I feel pretty numb. 

I know you said that you should have your results by today, and I’m hopeful that you’re hanging in there. If nothing else, please know that you’re not alone! - Meg
