boiopsy prayer

I am confused bc I talke to my doctor today and they want to get a biopsy of the left breast and they have me scheduled for a consultation on the 23 of December and the right breast that has the fibrocystic tissue they are waiting to see if anything changes. It makes no sense to me first they were more concerned about the right breast and the fibrocystic tissue but now they are going to biopsy the left breast where the nodule is and they say it seems to be a complex nodule.
I read online the complex nodules are usually breast cancer! ugh I am so frustrated and I wish they explained more to me. It's like yadda yadda there u go go here and do this. I am like WAIT I don't understand and I am stressing over this BIG TIME!!! I need to get a copy of the radiology report. I am gonna ask them if I can my question is can they refuse to give me a copy?

No, they can't refuse. If you ask for the report, they have to give it to you.

I can feel your frustration Joyce. I would also call and ask the questions you need to ask so you'll know what's going on. I never leave the Drs. office without knowing what he is talking about. I'm keeping you in my prayers that it will be nothing at all.

I suggest that you take someone with you when you go to the doctor just so they can help you remember what was said. You may have to ask the doctor to explain things better to you but don't be afraid to ask questions. You may want to write down questions before you go so you won't forget them. Hugs. We're here for you if you need us.

Joyce. Your in my prayers also. I hope it all works out for you. I go Monday for my Mammo. God be with you.

I am calling the doctor on monday and getting a copy of the report bc my head is spinning from trying to figure things out and second guess them. Also I think I should stop researching bc it is freaking me out!!

Joyce just want you to know that you are still in my prayers. Hope everything works out for the best! And yes doing research will freak you out! When my dr told me that there was a chance that I had ovarian cancer...she also told me that if I did research about it that it would freak me out..so I chose not to. But I understand that you want to find out everything you can. Hang in there and keep us informed. We care

Hello
I want to wish you good luck, i am sure everything will be just fine.

I found a lump in my right breast 4 years ago, went to the Dr's, who immediatly referred me to a specialist at the hospital, just to be on the safe side, she said.... i was scared.
I waited 3 weeks for the appointment, saw the specialist consultant, who reassured me it would likely be just fine, i had a mammogram, ultrasound, and chest x-ray. He told me the lump was not serious, but he did a biopsy, had it examined, all at my initial consultation. He confirmed the lump was fine, but suggested the options - leave the lump and if it grew he could remove it, or i could have it removed earlier, i decided to have it removed straight away, even though i believed it was ok.
I went in to the hospital about a month later as a day patient, had the lump removed under full anesthetic, went back to see the consultant about a week later who confirmed it was a non malignant lump as he had first thought, he reassured me all was ok.
I do check myself, and would not hesitate to go get checked in the future.
My Dr told me that 80% of all lumps are non malignant, but it is impossible not to worry when faced with this.

I just wanted to tell you my story to hopefully reassure you - all will be well, i am sure.

Good luck and keep us posted.
