I have regulat mammograms but it hadn't shown  up on them..The waiting is awful I really want it to be positive but I fear the worst Pensive 
  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    How did your appointment to get your results go today? If it did turn out to be breast cancer please be reassured that it's very treatable these days.

    The online community is divided into different support groups so, if you have had a cancer diagnosis, can I recommend that you join the breast cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.

    To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.

    It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and proposed treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
