Hi

had vacuum biopsy this morning - two areas of micro calcifications both approx 18mm they said.

was told tests results will go to MDM next Thursday the. I will be contacted - does anyone know if all cases go to these meetings or just the bad ones? Just the mammo woman (who was rough as hell anRoflhas caused my boob to split Cry) said oh if you are going to a meeting then you have to wait for that - made me wonder if everyone’s results are discussed at a meeting.

thanks in advance 

  • Hi ESTA

    Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you are facing a breast cancer diagnosis.  All results not just the bad ones go to the MDM to be discussed.

    Wishing you the best of luck with your results.

    Best wishes

  • Sounds like you have had a rough day, try & rest a little now Heart️

    All cases will go though MDT & then you receive feedback & recommendations if necessary. It's not easy waiting, I always found it tricky

    Best wishes x 

  •    many thanks for the replies - rough day Cry

  • I'm almost 8 years down the line from biopsy for 2 areas calcifications.  One area was benign the other DCIS.  All biopsy results checked.  I had my results before MDT meeting as they used to like to give asap but with caveat that treatment maybe changed following meeting.  

  • Hi Esta

    So sorry you’re having a rough time . I’m exactly the same as you at the moment. Lack of sleep and feeling anxious is my life  Rolling eyes 
    Yes all cases have a meeting to discuss way forward. I have my next one tomorrow so I’m like back to being a kitten up an old tapestry!

    It’s always worse when results are looming…. I’m happy to chat anytime. Take care Lynn xx

  • Hi  

    Its just awful isn't it - im in bits and no-one seems to understand why.

    To have to wait another week will be truly awful 

    Hope your meeting goes well tomorrow and thanks for replying to me x

  • Hi Esta

    Yes you feel very alone at times and whilst putting a brave face on it works sometimes at others you just want to hide away from everyone and everything. I’m going through that atm. Not good 

    But although it’s a waiting game you are taking baby steps towards the next stage of your journey and kicking cancers butt Muscle 

    If you want to dm me you’re more than welcome and we can buoy each other up

  • I’m awaiting results of my MRI and my mind is on overdrive. It’s awful. I’m sorry to hear you’re going through this too, but it hEli’s to know you’re not alone. I’m so scared of what I will hear and Im making up stories in my head ‘I’d have heard on the phone if it was good news, they’re waiting to see me face-to-face as it’s bad news’ etc etc. 
    I don’t feel I’m functioning well at home and this is just the beginning of the journey…

  •    hi how did your meeting go?? 
    iagree just want to hide away CryCry it’s unbearable xx
