Tomorrow I have yet another biopsy for breast cancer. Can you please pray for me?
Jan I saw a specialist about itchiness (for a year), which he dismissed but found something inside that concerned him. Got a diag. mammo. and US and even then the radiologists were alarmed and said I needed a biopsy and then an MRI. Did those - regular biopsies came negative, but they all came back in a fluster saying I must do MRI. Last week, that happened and they said, yes, looks bad. So tomorrow is MRI-biopsy.
Not happy either about procedure or results.
My MRI for this was not great, primarily because of need for contrast. Had to lay arms straight up beyond head and had to choose which way to face my head. Half way thru - esp. after horrible contrast started - my neck and shoulder on 1 side really in pain (long history of neck/head/shoulder pain). Never mind my endless recent head troubles making me dizzy when the table moved. How does one stay absolutely still for all this? The biopsy could mean longer torment.
I am fearful that an MRI is like gold - something ugly in there, MEANS something ugly.
I don't need this at all, particularly for my young son (8) or my mother, who has already dealt with my sister's death (inflammatory BC) hard. And of course also my husband and dad.
Please pray that this isn't cancer!
Done!
Pray for a clean report.
Many of us will be praying. I went through it myself in 2014 and I attribute prayers by friends, family, church, and FR to a positive outcome. Yearly mammo next week on remaining breast.
Please have a positive attitude; fear and stress can exacerbate it (so I’ve been told). Sing hymns.
Lord, Jesus, we pray that this is NOT cancer!
You have my prayers.
praying for you.
Done
Keep us posted, please
FReeper PRayer BUmp!
I’ll say a pray for you. For what it’s worth, my mother had inflammatory breast cancer and survived. Stay hopeful.
Prayers up!
Please keep us posted.
(a little selfish prayer ping)
Prayers up for you. God is able!
Done! I’m 36 with three kids seven and under. My final diagnosis (it took seven months!) was epithelial sarcoma, but that was after telling several very good docs no. Get second, third, and even fourth opinions. Insist that your slides are sent to multiple facilities. Don’t accept the first pathologist’s diagnosis. Be your own advocate. If a doc doesn’t want to send out your slides, find another doc. I pray this isn’t the case, but if it is, you can handle it.
That was my sister. :`(
Glad for your mom!
Doctor Jesus is on the case.
They don’t call Him the Great Physician for nothing.
Prayers sent, trust in God.
Prayers up the OlLine Rebel.
Prayers ascending.
Even if results are positive, cancer can be beat. I know....I’ve done it.
Keep a positive outlook, follow your doctors orders, and live life.
It will be ok.
I will pray for you.
Prayers up for you FRiend!
