Thanks everyone. I found the FB site and everyone has been very welcoming.

In denial at the moment. I don't want to think about what's to come I want to forget that I have cancer for as long as I can. When I have to deal with it I will.

Hi, it totally bites, fair enough to be peed off. Great that its not in your nodes.

I was diagnosed last week straight off my ultrasound, biopsy and bloods tomorrow to make sure its not in my nodes. no idea about stage or grade, cept its a 6cm mass with a snotty attitude. 

Its a crazy ride. Like its written in your brain in neon. The ladies on these boards help a lot. Google really doesnt,  finding this site meant I had clear explainations of what to expect.  

Wishing none of us were here, but having each other to talk to makes it easier than being alone.

Hi there, I was diagnosed last month aged 30 and it bloody sucks! I'm having chemo first at its grade 3 and in my lymph nodes. Had 2nd cycle of chemo yesterday and not feeling too bad.

Where you are at right now is the hardest part, just waiting for answers and waiting for something to begin to start fighting it! Please stay away from Google, it will make your head worse with all the out of date and negative stuff on there!

As you are only 36 I totally recommend finding an awesome Facebook page I found on the day I was diagnosed (if you're on FB that is). Search for Younger Breast Cancer Network and send them a message, it's all secret so noone will know you have joined. The girls on there are all wonderful and have rely helped during this tough time.

Big hugs and any questions let me know xxx

So sorry to hear that. As you know I'm on here because my mum was diagnosed today. I guess that answers our question - bringing the appt forward or leaving it where it was means nothing. They were both bad news. No lymph node involvement sounds positive.

Hi there, this is the worst time.mi was diagnosed October 9th. Mammogram was july !! So have had a few delays.mthe fact that your lymph nodes look clear is a really positive sign so hold on to that. The next few weeks will be a turmoil but try and stay sane and busy and take lots of support from the great people on this site. I have and that's what has kept me sane and given me the correct info I need. I went on Google and would advise you stay away from it and just take your info from here and macmillan and of course the ladies on here who know best

All the best

Nothing much to say other than the title. I'm feeling scared and shocked and don't really know what to think... feeling peed off that our family has even more **bleep** to deal with. Don't know much about the cancer other than its grade 2 and they don't think my lymph nodes are affected.
