Tomorrow I have yet another biopsy for breast cancer. Can you please pray for me?
Thanks for the advice. I would never think of that.
(Although it sort of happened to me already - had a giant tumor in my gut that was removed. They assumed it was cancer, and the initial pathology said it was. Went for a 2nd opinion - by order from my prime - from Hopkins doc who flabbergasted us by stating that the tumor wasn’t cancer - they had looked at it again “unfrozen” or such.)
mlizzy sent me this and I recite it during MRIs and CTs: Mary, Mother of Jesus, heal me now make me better. It’s quite calming and helps me breath in those machines.
I had an MRI Guided Biopsy myself. While my personal experience was pretty bad (apparently I'm allergic to the contrast)the recovery from it was easy, and the results available fairly quickly. In my case, it confirmed a suspicion (from a regular MRI) of cancer in my right breast. I already had a biopsy proving cancer in the left breast, and a PET scan revealed some small spots on my bones, making it Stage 4. Even with that though, the state of medical technology today has greatly improved living with cancer! I cite my Mother as an example - she had her 1st cancer (thyroid) in her mid 40’s, has had cervical cancer, skin cancer, Barret's Esophagus turning to cancer, and the latest is Breast cancer - she'll be 82 this fall! She did everything her Doctors wanted her to do once the Thyroid was discovered, and she's just fine - lives alone, active social life, happy as a clam. My point is, just relax; even if it is cancer, there is plenty of reason to be hopeful. Let not your heart be troubled.
Keep me posted and if you want to talk, I’ll pm you my number.
Praying now.
I am praying for you that in not be cancer, and that God will comfort you at this trying time.
Prayers ..God bless
Of course. Hang in there...
Prayers
My Prayers are up for you. Dear God Bless this women with your love and healing. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
Daughter-in-Law has been through this 3 times, the not knowing is the hardest. Went through Prostate Cancer myself last year..... Keep a positive attitude, continue to make plans for the future, know in your heart you can beat it!
Prayers that it’s nothing that the docs and you can’t easily deal with.
I will pray for you.
Let this be negative Lord.
And give this woman peace and strength.
Praying! I have a similar scare every year due to dense breasts. I understand your fear and wish you the very best results.
Prayers sent.
Thank you for your support! I’m sorry you have had such a diagnosis - but hopeful even that can be overcome! Your mom has sure been through it. Sorry, but glad she has made it through all!
That scares me too - my head has been newly extra weird the last couple months. It scares me that maybe this is cancer spread to my head/spine! (MRI w/o contrast was unremarkable of head, but did not get neck done.) I keep thinking of my sister.
Yeah, that’s me - high density. I’ve been through a ton of diag mammos and biopsies, often every 6 mos, since 2011. This is the first time they all seem frightened, though, and insist on MRI which showed something. :-(
Absolutely. My prayers and best wishes are with you.
Praying for strength and courage.
