Terrified !

Doctor Google is not your friend. That is something to learn very quickly. I think the other is that there seems to be as many different diagnosis and prognosis as there are sheep in Yorkshire. There are so many variables not only in the cancer but in the patients and everything is a contributing factor.

So all you can do is take a deep breath put your big girl pants on and wait. Let the specialists work it all out then when they are ready you will get an answer. There is little point asking anything much until they have done all the tests and had a chat. I found their vague answers because they couldn't comment until they had results very frustrating. 

Waiting is the hardest part of all this and we do a lot of waiting. Keep busy and as my friend says keep fingers ,toes and flaps crossed.

Sending big hugs.

Hi Gusmum sometimes when you’ve medical qualifications, getting a cancer diagnosis really sends you into a total downward, far-too-deep spiral. But breast cancer treatment these days is so much better than it used to be, and usually tailored carefully to the individual problems found. 

I know you’re away from home right now, but the biopsy result will let you know exactly what you’re facing and will hopefully give you a treatment plan that will fit in with what you’re doing right now. 

this site can be really helpful, including an ‘AWAKE’ thread for those night times when your brain is doing too many ‘what ifs’
