Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Well, I called my Dr's office and spoke to the RN. THey usually read my reports, as everything was discovered on a routine mammo. So I haven't even seen a 'doctor' other than the one doing the ultrasound. I need a biopsy this Friday. Trying to make light of it. Call RN just now and I know the report is ready (u/s), and she won't read it to me, just tells me that my Dr. will get back to me either tonight or tomorrow. She was very hesitant, but I could well tell that she had the report. She mentioned 'something suspicious " (which I knew) and the biopsy. For some reason I've not been scared, but I feel scared now. I think I've been in denial it could be true. I still don't know, but I just feel fearful. Truth: how would any of you feel if you were sitting here? Would you be steeling yourself for negative or positive results? Its so hard to sit and not think about it. Thanks. Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 I can see why you would be nervous but do you think maybe the dr figured it was time he talked to you? Or perhaps he told the nurse he wanted to talk to you in case you had any questions about your biopsy Hang in there. I will keep you in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Hi Pat - It's human nature to try to " read " what someone is telling us or not telling us by their tone, their inflections, their pauses and their facial gestures. But our interprations are not always right! When I first met with my oncologist after my bone scan, he looked so serious, started talking about when to start chemo, etc. I finally blurt out, " what about the results of my bone scan? " , at that point assuming the worst because of his tone and the fact that he hadn't brought it up. I read him wrong - my bone scan was absolutely fine. Another friend with mets recently had a CT scan and received a call from a nurse with the results. The results " sounded " bad. BUT, she had a PET scan already scheduled the following day, even before she talked to the doctor, and once she met with him, she found out that everything was clear! What I am trying to say is that you are understandably anxious and worried, but don't trust your interpretation that the nurse is withholding information from you. The biopsy will give you true results and whatever it is, you will deal with it, and we will all support you! Hugs, Janet B. > > Well, I called my Dr's office and spoke to the RN.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Thanks Janet, it was impulsive of me to immediately post. I was upset and definitely reading into this. Unfortunately the MD did not call back. Oh well, maybe tomorrow. But I'm keeping myself very busy with working on my computer (lost all, had to dump op. system recently) and there is so much to do to get it back together. So I find that helpful. Thanks for reminding me, I know I tend to do that! I have a social worker coming over tomorrow, she'll help put me in perspective. I guess it surprised me that I reacted that way. I felt so ... so 'absolutely sure' everything would be fine, and it might be a wake up call to think or let in the possibility it won't maybe also. Really shocked myself. So that was a good wake up call. I appreciate your support. Pat Re: getting nervous...

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Thanks again so much. I'm keeping busy, its just giving me a massive headache! Ha. Well, I'm fooling w/ my computer which can keep me busy for hours. So that is helping, and I have some books to read. I also have klonipin to help me too, which I keep forgetting about. I had this totally strong attitude that " I'll be totally fine " and truly felt everything would be fine (and MAY be), but the possibility of something else threw me so that I found I was totally unprepared, and that is what I need to do, find a middle ground. I did learn that lesson. I think its denial. I'm working on it!!! Thanks again for your help. Pat Re: getting nervous...

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Well, Pat, having been there, I would be wondering just like you and not knowing what to do. I would be doing just what you are....reaching out to all of our sisters. Since there isn't much that I could do, I would be bugging the doctor's office or camping in their waiting room until I found out something. All I know is that my prayers are with you in your waiting time and I am crossing fingers, toes, arms, and legs hoping your news will be good news. minneice minneice@...> wrote: Well, I called my Dr's office and spoke to the RN.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 I will, first I will call the MD's office and see if she is in, then I'll call radiology and see if I can get them to read to me the results. They may not, but I'll try. Then I'll call the RN's back and yell!!! I'm not a patient person! However, in a way I want to ignore the whole thing (you understand). I will sleep, that is for sure.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Pat - get on the phone and make some noise! Waiting is just the worst of everything involved in this whole process. Janet gives good advice about " reading into things " - I could identify with being in that situation a couple of times now. I'm with nne - keep calling until you get some answers. Keep us posted.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Thanks, I called my Dr's office again today and got no answer again. I saw my soc.worker today, she's is great. I had called my shrink to call in other meds as I've been a lot more anxious and she helpsed me pick them up. It was nice to sit down and talk to someone. Face to face. I won't even bother trying to call them tomorrow, I'll call radiology but that's it. If I don't get any answers, then I just give up, but I won't be seeing that Dr. again, that's for sure.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 I agree, and she still hasn't called. I'm so mad. WIll try radiology today. told my soc. woker. yesterday that I was SO SURE I would come out of this totally fine, that getting even that hesitation from the nurse really showed me how I might react if I got bad news. I had No clue I was such a wreck. Had to get meds. I had No idea the denial I was in. I TRULY believed that, and there has to be a middle ground to be ready for either. I don't know how to get there, but somehow now I guess I'm not as interested in hearing the results, know? Now I'm almost too afraid it will make me the wreck I was that day. OH I don't know, it will be whatever it is I'm sure. I do know going against me is that I'm super dense in both breasts, I hear that's not good.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Pat: Positive thinking is good especially when it comes to a disease that can alter one's life so very much. But you have been led either formally or informally by medical personnel to believe that the results were less than positive. You have a right to be upset. Sometimes a temper tantrum on the phone is a good thing. I think I would camp out at the doctor's office until I got the results. You go, Girlfriend. You deserve better and should have it. I am pulling for you. Jan K Pat m minneice@...> wrote: I agree, and she still hasn't called. I'm so mad.

Trying to make light of it. Call RN just now and I know the report is ready (u/s), and she won't read it to me, just tells me that my Dr. will get back to me either tonight or tomorrow. She was very hesitant, but I could well tell that she had the report. She mentioned 'something suspicious " (which I knew) and the biopsy. For some reason I've not been scared, but I feel scared now. I think I've been in denial it could be true. I still don't know, but I just feel fearful. Truth: how would any of you feel if you were sitting here? Would you be steeling yourself for negative or positive results? Its so hard to sit and not think about it. Thanks. Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat, Truth: I would be nervous as well and scared, however I would shut my body down with sleep and face tomorrow with putting another call in first thing in the morning explaining that you cannot emotional wait any longer and could the dr. please call you ASAP. Good Luck, I will keep you in my prayers, Michele minneice minneice@...> wrote: Well, I called my Dr's office and spoke to the RN. THey usually read my reports, as everything was discovered on a routine mammo. So I haven't even seen a 'doctor' other than the one doing the ultrasound. I need a biopsy this Friday.
