Nervous

liveit56

Well, it is getting closer to the day for the core biopsy...the 21st and I am so nervous.

I am so glad I have you all to come to and just talk.  I haven't said much to my family yet, just my husband and he is being great but, I  know he is scared for me.

I pray all goes well and I have good news to share with everyone.

Please keep me in your prayers and you all are in mine.

Love and many blessing to you all.

Hi liveit56

The waiting and the tests are so hard.  Like so many of the ladies have said, that often things are seen that turn out to be B9.  Hoping and praying for you on the 21, that it is.

Take Care

Liveit56 -

hang in there.  It is so nerve-wracking to be waiting for the procedure, and then waiting for the results.  But since there really isn't anything we can do about it, we just have to remember to breathe, and rely on each other.  I'm glad your husband is being supportive, that must be so helpful.  I'm sending good thoughts your way!

Livit56 - don't we all know about this roller coaster!!  I've had 2 biopsies since my classic LCIS diagnosis, and both were benign.  I'm sure its especially hard to go through this through the holidays.  (I had to wait through the holidays for my diagnostic excision.) Everyone expects you to be delighted through the holidays, but when you have other issues......

We all want to be ready for what is ahead.  

As cornellalum, Minnesota, and formykids said, Hold on.  We will be here no matter the outcome.

Well, after all the anxiety and worry...it was a mistake. I just can't believe it... I knew something did not sound right and so glad I kept pushing...if anything I can say to anyone on here it is be your own advocate. 

I had explained in my other post what had happen when I went for mammogram...how I was told I needed an ultra sound on right breast and then I got register letter to call office and was told left breast and core biopsy with marker..that is how it all started.

Thank God that there was a technician there that listen to what I was saying and actually looked into it. 

Thank you all for your prayers and good thoughts. Right now I am just thankful for everything.

Love to all,

Liveit

I'm 74 with a family history of mother, her sister and a first cousin all with BC. I was diagnosed with LCIS via of a core biopsy. Three wks later I had a lump and margins removed. Now I have to see an oncologist Jan. 25 and I'm not sure why! The surgeon mentioned tamoxifene or one of the others. A bilateral was also mentioned. At my age I think I prefer the bilateral.  I no longer care how I look in a bathing suit! I'm very active with golf, hiking and other things. I also want to move out of my state to another one across the country. How about helping an old lady out with comments. I am a bit confused, and a lot nervous also.

Judy I am so sorry that you have to go through this. The good news is that LCIS is not an invasive cancer but generally a marker for increased risk for developing cancer. PLCIS is more of a concern. Were you Dx with the classic type (LCIS) or pleomorphic type (PLCIS) ? I would certainly follow up with an oncologist that has some experience in this area to discuss your options. You have time to research and make a decision

We are all here to help you. I am sure others will post as well.
