Try not to panic (easier said, I know!) Several years ago my mother had a lump that did turn out to be malignant. She had a lumpectomy and did a one year course of non-chemo treatment. She had no side effects to speak of, no fatigue, and has had no further issues or sign of reoccurance.

There is of course every chance in the world your situation is something harmless - just want to remind that even if it isn't, doesn't mean you won't be totally fine as well!! That being said, I completely remember the feeling of waiting for those test results and am so sorry you are going through it!

I too am sending you my thoughts and prayers. My mother was diagnosed approximately 6 years ago and I was sure we were going to lose her, but she is still here, has had some rough times and her cancer was difficult because it was HER2 + and more difficult to treat, however, it has not recurred thus far and she is doing well. I know you are going to have a tough road ahead and I wish you all the strength you need, you CAN get through this. I hope you find out it is non-invasive. I know you will probably find yourself spending times on other forums which are more particular to cancer, but please keep us updated!!

As a breast cancer survivor of 2 years now I can sympathize with you. I know exactly what you are going through.

It is tough, but time flew by for me and I prevailed. You will too. I had bi-lateral mastectomy, reconstruction, and chemo. If there are any questions or support you need, please feel free to ask. I will be thinking and praying for you. Jen

Sending my prayers and best wishes your way! Just went through this with my mother in March. We were lucky - stage 2 - opted for total breast removal and she is now starting hormone therapy - no radiation or chemo needed.

I am having a routine physical today and mamogram next week. Scared me enough to get back on track with my preventive care schedule! Please keep us posted on the course of treatment you elect. Again - hugs and prayers coming your way!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
