Waiting results

Hi I have had to core biopsy’s, which were inconclusive, the surgeon said there was cancer there the pathologist gave it a 4! But they need a 5 before surgery! Had a total duct removal yesterday to get the diagnosis, is it normal to take so many biopsies,? It’s been 6 weeks now since the first and another week for results, it’s the waiting

Hi Jane,

Sorry to hear you’ve been having this uncertainty, sometimes this does happen & further biopsies are needed, although it’s not pleasant to go through, they are only being thorough. 

I was told at the breast clinic that they will always get to the bottom of it. 

If you want to, let us know how you get on.

Thank you I will let you know, getting the results on Wednesday, he more or less said he was certain a cancer was there he just needed confirmation from the Pathologist xx I’m sure I will need help advice and support from this group Thank you
