Well, today I had my MRI so I am nervously awaiting the results of that. The procedure wasn't bad and they made me quite comfortable. Next week, I meet my oncologist for the first time to discuss my MRI results and treatment options prior to surgery...This sure is a multi step process....

    Hang in There!
    Good luck to you going thru the process - it most definitely tries your patience with all the waiting and tests. I didn't have an MRI - just bone and CT scans but both, altho painless, were nerve racking. And I had both of these after my masectomy so we are different but in the same ball park. I know that others will respond to you with info. I'm sending out positive vibes and hugs to you. Sally

    You are right!
    It is a multi-step process and you sound like you are handling it fine. If you find yourself having difficulty sleeping please let your doctors know. You need your rest and they can give you something to help. This is a very stressful time but you will be fine. Keep us posted.

    This is a very long
    journey i know. And there will be days when you feel like its never going to come to an end or get better. You will have many many appointments and it will seem like you are at one dr or another dr everyday. You just have to take it day by day and keep a support system too. That is so important. I will pray that things go well. You take care and keep us updated.

    One day at a time is the best advice I can give you. It does take time because of all the testing and waiting for results but that's just the way it is. At least all those tests are available and needed to make certain the treatment plan is specific and based on your particulars. You will be in active treatment soon. Let us know how you are doing. Take care.

    Just got the results of the mri
    If you guys remember, my diagnosis showed the breast cancer only in my lymph node and the mri was to try and find the originating tumor. Looks like they found a 9mm tumor in my left breast . They are saying this is extremely small and that I will probably get chemo, lymph node removal and a lumpectomy. This all depends on the biopsy of the tumor which they will do on Friday...
