hello waiting for treatment plan terrified

Hi ziggyzed  and welcome to the forum. It sounds like it's been a scary week:(   Are you going into hospital for the results today, or after their team meeting on Wednesday? Hopefully you won't have too long to wait. 

I'm guessing that the big question is if they are related (ie one has spread) or two different types of cancer, which will affect how they treat you. If they're related you might have chemo first,  and they usually do it first if it's  certain types of breast cancer as well.  

Fingers crossed for you today,  and hugs for this week. Not knowing is so hard! Xxx

Hi ziggyzed

Welcome to the forum, I'm Daisy53 one of the Community Champions on this forum.  I'm sorry to hear that you need surgery on your lung and that they found a lump in your breast.  Most breast lumps turn out to be benign but if it is cancer it will be treatable.

Wishing you the best of luck with your results.

Best wishes

Oh honey, I think we're all scared/terrified in our own way. The good news (?) is that we're all in the same club and know exactly how you feel. 

I went for a routine mammogram. Then "can you come back to the accessment centre?" Then more mammogram's followed by ”We've seen something." 

Then breast & lymph nodes biopsies + skin punch biopsy and we need to send you to A B or C hospital. Or UCLH? My first trip on the sh*# show rodeo was there (and I knew how to get there!)

Seen by CNS & docs last Thursday. Looking at chemo, surgery then chemo and/or radiotherapy.

MDT on this Tuesday. PET scan this Thursday followed by ...

The waiting is THE WORST followed by the not knowing of what can happen. But the community (and friends?) that you meet her and along the way, can help. Even if it's just a written version of verbal vomiting on here. 

The journey always reminds me of the joke. How do you eat an elephant? One bite/mouthful at a time. This BEEPER is one day/decision/thing at a time. 

There is always someone who understands here

hello everyone and thankyou for your replys. i have spoken to my breast doctor and he says  i have stage 1 hormonal breast cancer and said it is not linked to my lung cancer. so i am having lung vats operation on tuesday. also waiting for hormone blockers for breast tumor then 6 to 8 weeks after lung operation. they are doing my breast op. im so overwhelmed and feels such a lot to deal with. i realy need to stop crying every hour or when im on my own.

We're all here for you if you need a shoulder to cry on. I've just got home from my PET scan and I'm now just waiting for Tuesday afternoon to find out the worst. 

Just TRY to take it 1 bit at a time. Even if it's just making a cuppa that'll go cold because you're busy using an entire box of tissues, or is that just me. I "came too" and found I'd made 6 teas earlier.... Can't stand tea!

I wish I could send a physical hug though.

thankyou JH70 im sat here worrying myself sick. trying to be strong is so hard. i just feel my whole body has turned against me. sending so much luck for your pet scan results. im going to clean house and get everything sorted before operation . my other half can do garden lol sending love to you and yours xxx

Can I borrow your other half? Live alone and dreading the weeding when I can get back to it "after". I've cleaned the house top to bottom already. Windows, on top of cupboard included. Curtains I need help getting down. Not supposed to go up ladders after several too many falls. Toldson instead of hospital visits he can visit the lawnmower but last time he weeded for me, my lavenders & fuchsias & roses were gone but weeds were EVERYWHERE. Had a indoor plant that had dandelions in...

We're all in the same frame of mind around now. I think it's officially called "scared out of our minds, (shipping* ourselves)"

Treat yourself to a long soak, a glass of wine or entire box/bag/bar of "to share" goodies (does anyone?). Watch a film with the kids/grandkids/force the other half too, with you. 

I've already downloaded Wicked & Barbie for 'later". 

Keep in touch?
