Hello @laurakwalker1980 this is the scariest time, in my opinion. The waiting for more testing and then waiting for results from said testing are anxiety inducing at best. I believe this to be true in any major medical issue, but I am a 21 years survivor of breast cancer.
I could tell you to try and distract yourself, but I find that isn’t very effective for me. I do hack my own brain by saying I can only worry for 30 minutes in the morning. Then if I start to worry about it, I can tell myself “nope you have to push that worry to the worry time. This allows me to focus a bit better knowing I can think about it later.
Try to breathe and wait for the information. You might be very happy with the results. If you do get bad news we will be here to help talk you off the ledge.
As for the husband, my husband could not even think I had anything wrong because he couldn’t face the thought of losing me. It wasn’t until he got cancer that he really understood how scary that was for me.
I know that none of this will make it less scary while you wait for all the information, but maybe it can give you some space for peace.💕
Have you had any biopsies in the past?
