scared & feeling numb



Recommended Posts

Last week I posted how happy I was to fianlly break into the 150's... Now I am waiting to hear If I have breast cancer.. I noticed a lump in my right breast last friday night, they did a mamogram, untrasound and biopsy yesterday.

Although they did not outright say it .. I am pretty sure it is cancer. Have to wait 48-72 hrs for official result

I feel so sick to my stomach I can not even begin to expain how I feel right now..

Just please keep me in your thoughts..

Thanks for listening

Oh goodness. I know that it is probably hard, but don't get yourself all worried and sick and scared unless you really have to! There are lots of things that it could be. My mom has begnin cysts removed from her breasts all of the time and is always scared that it is the "c" word, but it never is! Please, Please don't worry yourself sick.

I will pray for you. Please keep us posted.

Kelly ;)

{Sherri} Wish I could send a hug through the internet. I'm a 2x breast cancer survivor and I know what that fear feels like.

Sending prayers your way. Keep us posted.

Oh Sherri, I am so sorry you are having to go through this. Like Kelly says though, try not to worry until you know you need to. I have a really good friend who is currently going through breast cancer treatment and I know how scary the thought of that can be. Try not to yet though. The waiting is hard. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Let us know what the results are.

Sherri.... SO sorry that you are going through this right now. Everyone assumes that they have cancer when they find a lump and it turns out to not be the case for many people. I'd be scared too but try to hang on to the knowledge that this may be a false alarm. Worst case scenario...the treatment options for breast cancer have never been better and are improving every day. Please let us know how you are and what you find out. I too will be sending healing vibes your way...

Try to stay positive as much as you can. Sending all my prayers that it turns out benign.

My sister many years ago had surgery and they used disolvable stitches internally. A year or two after the surgery she found a lump in her breast and went off to have it checked out. It turns out the lump was the stitches. Her body could not dissolve them properly and had balled up the foreign material and was making its way out of her body. It ended up in her breast. The doctor went in a removed the lump.

Here is hoping for something other than "c".

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
