Getting scared

Lynn721

On February 20 th was my normal mammogram. My call back was February 21st. My 3d mammogram with ultrasound was February 25 th. The dreaded "you'll need a biopsy" was said. My biopsy is scheduled for this Thursday, 8:30 am, and now that it's getting close.....it's hitting me. I thought I was doing good, until today. I keep seeing my childrens faces in my head, my youngest is 11, then 13 then 21. My oldest knows, my younger ones have no idea. They don't know that I'm facing something that I don't know what it is yet. They are unaware that I'm off work Thursday to have a biopsy of my right breast. That after they go to school I'm heading to the hospital to have this procedure. I'm scared and don't know what to expect. I'm finding I'm forgetting everything the radiologist said. Were there clear margins? If so, are they still clear? Were the lymph nodes clear ......as far as he could tell so far. Still 11mm? No shadowing?My boyfriend is in denial and won't talk about it. I'm actually a nurse......Nurses make the worst patients or so I'm told. I'm not used to being on this side of medicine. Could really use some support.
