Hi
I've been reading either posts about waiting for the results. I'm just seeing how other people cope and what they do in the meantime and how long do they give before contacting the hospital.
My story found a lump and dimpling, saw a GP on the 19th January refered to consultant on 25th. Mammogram on the 2nd Feb. Ultrasound on the 4th. Found a dominate lump 4cm with other small lumps took biopsy. Also lymph nodes under armpit on same side do had biopsy on them too! Mri scan on 6th Feb and was told results 1 to 2 weeks!!
The day before mri scan had to have blood tests as on high blood pressure tablets..I'm trying not to get stressed bit it's not knowing is the hardest bit.
Hubby and son know but not told parents they are in their 80s so don't want to worry them just yet!!
Hi Jackiewackie, I now have scan date next Thursday, don't have consultant appt yet though. I know exactly what you mean about silly o'clock, and hope you soon get over your colds. Wishing you everything good and positive, thanks for ultraviolet as ever xx
I received my call yesterday afternoon after work as well! Good luck with the next round of ultrasound/biposies x
thats ok I knew what you meant. I hope your scan goes ok next week x
Not daft at all, I still feel this, which you describe so well. This 'journey' takes us through many stages and this is a horrible one, but I wish you everything good for your struggle. From all I've read of you, you are a strong inspiring person, and I thank you for your support to others of us on this site xx
