Taleshia, I am so glad you found this site. It is filled with encouraging and life sharing people. I had a similar experience in that some "calcifications" showed up the year prior to an actual mass detected on annual mam, Dec. 2023. I am also a nurse, retired for a long time and am now 85. I had an ultrasound that same day and was told they needed a biopsy to determine the diagnosis. Somehow, I just knew. I waited about 3 or so weeks to get the biopsy. It is a time of waiting at each step and anxiety can overtake us. I cried my tears too. It is a release of tension and stress. I also like the deep breathing. That is a proven aid in stress reduction. It helped me so much to confide in a close friend who had gone through all of this herself. I agree that staying busy, occupying your mind is a great suggestion. Try to stay in the moment and not do future thinking. That is hard though isn't it, especially for we nurses. The testing and your wonderful PCP will walk you through any further steps that they find necessary. If you are a woman of faith, ask for prayer support. It is important to put words to feelings, on this site, to friends, a pastor, etc. Remember that you are not alone.
