Hey all,

I am awaiting a CNB on two separate suspicious areas of my left breast. You'd think since Ive been through this before I'd be a pro...but man this waiting sucks! I was diagnosed w/ADH, ALH, FEA, PASH via excisional biopsy Jan 17. So I've been followed with alternating MRI and Mammo every 6 months. They always talk about distortion from my surgery area, but this last appt they did the Mammo, then kept me for more Mammo images and an Ultrasound. Then they told me there was a shadowed mass they originally thought was from my surgery but realized it was not connected and they needed to biopsy. They also found another mass that they think could be lymph node or fibroadenoma and wanted to watch it and wait, but since I'm already getting a biopsy on the other, but my Dr said to do both to save me the anxiety.

I haven't seen the reports and the only words they used to describe the mass were on the "bad" side. I'm trying to just focus on the positive, and not get ahead of myself, but it's hard! Especially hard for people to understand who have never been in this position before. Now for the second time.

Anyway, just writing really to "vent" because I know people here can relate. If anyone else needs support I'm here for you!

    That’s why I’m here, a bit of venting to people who can relate and hopefully some help in easing someone else’s anxiety waiting for their results as well, I think I’m pretty much numb at this point.
