12/14 update; biopsy was pretty painless but owie now!!! i'm icing and taking acetaminaphen.....did not sleep last nite more than about 3 hours-partly due to sinus' and throat...so i'm going to go nap....
i DID look at the biopsy sample in the lil jar..wow- they took alot of "stuff" but it's still a good lump....
he did NOT biopsy the armpit -lymph nodes-yet;wants to see what he got first then may go back in--im happy not to be invaded anymore than necessary but not keen on a possible second biopsy...
anyhow friday will be the earliest i could get results.[size=5]
original post: long story short; i have a "lump" on the (armpit)side of my left breast..no insurance..health dept did the clinical exam and sent me -yesterday- to the hospital for a digital mammo. the radiologist wanted an ultra sound and has now ordered a biopsy......
i have to say that i am scared. it's probly nothing .but i am scared.
waiting to get scheduled for the biopsy ...
prayers and hugs appreciated......i find that it is very hard to ask for one's self....
***update wednesday 11/30---had my surgical consult today-dr is very concerned -his words- said level 5- will biopsy within next two weeks...--also lymph nodes may be involved per his hand examination--he talked about chemo already - positive is taht it's cold and winter so chemo caps (which i,ironicaaly, used to knit for capsforacure!) would be appropo! figures-my hair is below shoulder length now and i love it!
[size=5]new info: biopsy scheduled for wednesday 12/14---according to doc's nurse, he really DOES think this is cancerous.... my thoughts and emotions are all over the page right now. i appreciate everyone's prayers and ask that they continue..... your prayers and kind words are all appreciated!

Big farm sister hugs and love to you. Waiting is just the most excruciating thing ever. Praying for you and hoping it's just one of those little fibroid things that girls get. Just know that we are your sisters and are here for you (((HUGZ)))

Margo, Prayers sent your way. As others have said the waiting is the hardest part as your mind tends to take over and thing the worst. Try your best to keep positive- it goes hand in hand with the power of prayers! Hugs,

Margo, So sorry to hear that you are going through this. I agree with Joey. I think waiting to find out may be one of the hardest parts! Prayers coming your way that the tests come out in your favor and that you can find peace of mind until you find out the results!

It might be difficult to ask, but you're just as deserving as those you pray and send good thoughts too, so don't be afraid and don't go through this alone. Whatever it is, farmgirl friends and your farmgirl spirit will get you through. Thoughts and hugs from across the miles.
