Welcome knicnic . Hoping the rash will go soon but remember in everyday life boobs are fine but mess, poke, prod and generally annoy them then they get unhappy. I recall being black and blue after my biopsy for over a week. The waiting game is hard do try to distract yourself. I also have become more emotional since my journey ey ( I hate that word in this context as I wouldn't an that trip) but feel free to read profile for more. Welcome to the gang! X
Thank you so much for your reply, I popped on to read you story - you’ve been through so much and with your dad too
Hoping the rash will go away soon, it’s not welcome and definitely not helping the anxiety. My appointment for biopsy results is the week after next, so 2 weeks after my biopsy - unless I get a call sooner, I went private and was see quickly but I understand that they have to have meetings about results and come up with plans so that’ll be why it’s taking longer.
Thank you again for welcoming me xx
Hi knicnic welcome to our loopy club! You are only feeling what all of us fruit loops have felt before, it's perfectly natural to be worried, stressed, emotional, tearful... It's all part of this bloody awful position you have found yourself in. London Lass has said it all... She's very good with words... Bless youLondonLass
Steer clear of Google, take one day at a time, be kind to yourself and don't feel you are on your own in this... There's a lot of us here to support you...In fact hospital waiting rooms get really packed with us all, as you will discover, now you've become one of us!
Take care
Sally
Hi Sally thank you so much for welcoming me into your loopy club.
Definitely feeling it today and so coming on here has helped, and I’m grateful for that.
Trying to stay in the moment, however worrying about my daughter, my husband and my mum too- we lost my dad to cancer in 2015 and I know this is bringing up a lot of memories and feelings that won’t be easy to have.
We are also meant to be going on holiday in just under 2 weeks but that’s been thrown into doubt and although I know it’s not my fault it feels it is
Trying to push the scary thoughts away but unfortunately haven’t located the off switch for them.
Thank you for being so kind xxx
Bless you knicnic , it’s a great group to be a member of! You do have to be a bit loopy of course, as we all are! Gently loopy of course! (Although I suspect I’m probably around the loopiest!)
Hope you don’t have to wait too long for results, the wait honestly is the worse part, as we all know rather too well.but as Sally/Dicha says, there will be an awful lot of us going in spirit to your appointment! Oh and by the way, popping a bit of info in your profile can help (mine is far too long and very involved, all 4 of immediate family)
