I had a breast biopsy (actually a full lumpectomy) and the results are benign!!! even if my boob looks like an extra in a Frankenstein movie. :party: :toast: :bounce: :headbang: :woohoo:

6. thanks!
I was very worried this time. I've had other lumps checked and removed but never was worried. This one was different from all the others so I was pretty nervous...fortunately, without need.

7. Phew, indeed, Katina! That is great news!
I went through that, and know how scary it can be, waiting for results (mine were benign too). I'm very happy for you! :pals:

12. congrats to you as well!
it is a great relief as you know! There was never any breast cancer in my family, but my sister was diagnosed with a recurring type 2 years ago. We have bery similar health "issues" so when they found this lump and kept wanting to do more and more scans, ultrasounds etc..it made me a little nuts. I'm glad it's over.
Just do yourself a favor and stay on top of it..get your mamograms on a regular basis. :hug:

18. they did all the "less invasive" ways first
but when push comes to shove, the only real way is a tissue biopsy. It's a small price to pay and incisions do heal.

21. I think the waiting to find out the unknown is always the worst part
no matter what the issue. Hope your friends are ok too. :hi:

17. "Phew!" is right!!!


:hug:

Definitely cause for celebration.

Your breast will heal up just fine, too, I know, without the aid of an angry mob equipped with pitchforks.

Excellent news!

:hug:

24. Congratulations!
My wife went through one of those last month...I can attest that waiting for the news can be excruciating, but worth it in the end.
