worried out of my mind

Justanxious22

Hi new here , I just had a biopsy done on my left breast yesterday a lump that I had for maybe five years now. I've had the lump looked at two times before ,and was supposed to get it checked one more time but I couldn't afford it at the time. So I was able to now and it was recommended that I have a biopsy or wait 6 months , so anyway that's were im at now . So now I have pain in my left breast of course from the biopsy but pain on my rib area ...which I'm not sure if that's normal or not .so I'm anxious about that and the results , not sure how I'm going to make it till next week honestly .

I want to welcome you Justanxious! Glad you got the biopsy over with at this point. Really stinks waiting on all those call backs/6 month waits and then still being at the biopsy point.... good you had it done tho! The Mods are absolutely correct about how difficult the waiting is, as you're aware of at this point. They gave great suggestions on getting through the time too.... Please let us know when you hear about results....
