I go from feeling calm and resigned to total panic. Not knowing is pretty nerve wracking because my life could change completely once I get the results in. Thank you for sharing. I get home from everyone who has come out on the other side of their diagnosis.

@tally9004 Welcome to our support group. The emotions of calm to panic sound about right to me. It's a shock to get this information and nerve wracking while you await the biopsy. When I heard the word "cancer", in my case uterine cancer, my whole consciousness shifted. In fact, I made a wrong turn on a road I'd driven many times on my way home from the gynecologist's office. I was in an unfamiliar neighborhood and once I "woke up" I easily corrected my route but it was an unsettling experience for me. I knew why it happened but I felt like I was existing in another world as I absorbed the information.

What time is your biopsy tomorrow?
