How do I make sense of my biopsy results?

@calygirl84, that must be very worrying. But diagnosis or ruling out cancer takes several steps. It's not easy to stay calm through it all.

I suggest scrolling through the messages @casa got from fellow members when she, like you, was concerned about biopsy results. See the posts from @kk57 @auntieoakley @roch @windyshores and others.

Caly, May is a while to wait for the next test. What do you do to keep you mind calm?

Hi Colleen thanks so much for the wonderful information. I am thrilled to be part of a forward thinking group of Women, who want real answers and facts. I do not understand why a Dr would let me keep a lump in my breast for 2 + months, go thru another MRI and ultrasound, and end up taking this lesion out anyway. Who wants to sit with a lump might have cancer in it any longer then they have to. I feel like a sitting duck? What are your idea’s on this? I am trying to be my logical self.

Hi Colleen,
My reply to how I keep calm. Is often I realise after I leave the Dr’s appointment, I do not even ask half the questions I wanted to, (after the fact) my real issues are; Why would I want to wait to have to handle this. I just want this lesion removed and be done with it. Is that unrealistic? Thanks @calygirl84
