We know, waiting is VERY difficult but we're here for you.
I was just diagnosed with breast cancer from a biopsy and waiting for full pathology report The ultrasound found the following 1.6cm longest side of tumor “No enlarged or suspicious appearing lymph nodes in the right axilla” if my tumor is less than 2cm and lymph nodes appear to be clear I would be Stage 1A…. I know more…
I am waiting a biopsy for recent mammogram for clustered calcification findings. I have researched (yes, I know we are told not to Google things, but I'm scientific and information minded and this helps me manage anxiety and anxious thoughts if I can make a plan for both scenarios). My physician said if it is anything it…
I had an MRI guided core needle biopsy and the results came back as discordant benign. The doctors recommended I follow up with a breast surgeon for an excisional biopsy which I have scheduled for next week. Has anyone been in this situation and if so what was the outcome? I have mixed emotions that it's benign but it…
I wanted to thank all the women who responded to my concerns. It turns out that the irregular nodule was actually a cluster of small cysts. There is no cancer evident. I will see the breast cancer surgeon in six months for another mammogram and ultrasound. After a month of waiting, I have my answer. The good news is that I…
RESULTS FROM MAMMO/US Tissue Density: The breasts are heterogeneously dense, which may obscure small masses. There is a persistent nodular density noted in the 6 o'clock region of the breast. No associated calcifications are seen. Ultrasound: There is an irregular solid nodule with posterior shadowing at 6 o'clock 3 cm…
I’m concerned about the wait times for basic diagnostic appointments…best practices is symptoms to pathology (in Canada) in 7 weeks. BC recommends 4 weeks as their standard. I have waited 6 weeks for an initial mammogram/ultrasound after finding a large, new, hard lump in my right breast. I am now on week 2 of waiting for…
I've had my biopsy on Monday and I have a question about the procedure. I was too stressed to ask the doctor when she was doing it, and then when it was all over, I couldn't wait to get out of there. So, here I am, asking you. I was lying on the side with my arm up, I kept my eyes closed during the biopsy, but the first…
Hello All, I'm really worried to be here but also glad there is a community I can vent to and share my fears with as I wait for my biopsy results to come back. Long story short, last July 2023 while I was breastfeeding (pumping only) I noticed a lump in my right breast. I brushed it off for a few days, then got really…
I just received results from a screening mammogram. An archtiectural distortion was noted in the left breast with no mass observed. I am being asked to go back for a diagnostic mammogram and an ultra sound. I have to wait 2 weeks for these tests which is very anxiety producing. It was noted that the architectural…
