Back from hospital, had a core biopsy, not a very nice experience! Got to wait til a week on Friday for results, more waiting :(! Apparently it’s a very tiny lump, so I’m hopeful that if its anything bad it can be dealt with easily!! Xx
At least that’s over + done with, and tiny has to be good!
More waiting sucks though, keep your chin up hun xx
One hurdle out the way! At least you know have a better idea of what you are dealing with. With lots of displacement activity, the week will pass quickly. Keep at it!
Best wishes,
MM x
How are you feeling today Suz? Hopefully less sore now… take care xx
Hi Cath I’m not too sore got a lovely bruise though, was feeling a bit down but my friend soon dragged me out of it lol! How are you? Hope you are doing ok xxx
Glad you’ve found some distractions 
I’ve been awake since 4 this morning coz I’m worried as I’m convinced my lump has grown 
Roll on Weds when I can speak to the experts about it again!
Cath,Glad you’ve got your appointment through, don’t know about you but always think things feel worse at night, I can cope during the day but as soon as night draws in I start to crumble and my mind goes into overdrive! always here if u need to chat! Take care xxx
I had wide excision and a sentinal node biopsy on the 6th and am still awaiting results and I dont think I can take much more of this waiting its really getting me down. After the op I wasnt too sore but now the one for the node biopsy is really sore and tender I’m taking codeine phosphate but not doing much good apart from makng me constipated. How long should it be before the pain eases off

Hi,
Don’t know if I’m doing this right, its my first time on this site …is anybody out there HER2+ & ER+?
I have grade 1 cancer, have had lumpectomy with clear margins, but cancer cells were found in the sentinel node, therefore all lymph nodes need to be removed. I’m very worried about the HER2+ because I belive its aggressive?
Is anybody else in the same situation?
