Waiting for an official Diagnosis

HelloHolly

My mom had her well woman exam on Friday last week and her annual mammogram on Monday. Tuesday they called her and wanted to do an ultrasound on her left breast. They found something suspicious that's about 1cm. Biopsy was done yesterday (Friday). I read her ultrasound and mammography report, BIRAD 5. My mom's friend is a Pathologist and will read her biopsy results today, that way we don't have to wait over the long weekend for results. I'm trying to be strong, but I can't help but cry every time I think about it. I went to her house yesterday after I got off work and we layed in her bed and talked and cried. I want to be strong and supportive for her becuase she's being strong and is ready to fight it and seek any and all treatment necessary.

 My grandmother had breast cancer almost 8 years ago and is currently a survivor.

I'm having a very hard time coping, just as many of you are. I can't eat, can't sleep, very nauseated and I feel like I'm having a constant anxiety attack. Heart racing, shaking hands, shortness of breath. Have any of you had to be medicated to calm nerves and just relax? What can I do to help relax and be a good support system for her?

 Thank you so much for listening, new friends. I'm praying.
