    Gina, could you have a MRI? 

    Gina, could you have a MRI? Or even a needle biopsy?  I don't know that I could wait a year.  I think it would bother me too much.  Maybe at least insist on a MRI. 

    Update us when you can.

     

    Sending you big hugs too and

    DX at 32 here!

    Hi Amanda --

    I am so sorry you are going through this. I was dx at 32 in 2011. I harvested my eggs (no kids yet), took chemo, radiation and currently on tamoxifen for 5-10 years (possibly 10), and I will be on pills forever.

    You've come to the right place! These ladies are AMAZING. They helped me so much during my journey, and they still do. If you need chemo or radiation or pills, whatever it is you'll need to treat your cancer (IF you have cancer), we'll be able to guide you on what to do to try and minimize the issues that can arise from treatments. You will do GREAT!

    It is normal to feel scared and nervous. But once you get more information you will start to feel better. Don't forget to have faith and stay positive no matter what you see or hear.

    I wish you the best of luck with everything. And please keep us all posted. We care.

    Sending prayers your way sweet sister! You are not lone!

     

    Hugs

    Amanda, 
      We all understand

    Amanda, 

      We all understand totally. I remember my thoughts when I first heard the words cancer, I was in shock. I had a suspicion that that is what it was but was in denial that it could be anything serious. I too had let it go way too long. It had come through my nipple and had started bleeding and I just bandaged it and went on with my life for months and months before I finally went tgo see a doctor.

     God has seen me through my trials and he will see you through yours.

     And please, you don't need to feel stupid talking about your problems here. Sometimes it is your sisters (and 2 brothers) that are the only ones who really understand.

    Hi Amanda!

    Never feel any negativity about expressing your concerns or feelings! I am so sorry you're having to deal with all the fear and anxiety but that's what cancer evokes in people. I'm hoping and praying it is NOT breast cancer. I know several women who have opted to do the same when they found out they carried the gene.

    Sending my hugs and prayers and please let us know how you're doing.

     

    Sylvia

    Just saying how sorry I am

    Amanda, it has been so long since you posted.  The pink sisters start worrying around here and we are all hoping that you're doing better and will come back and post an update for us.

    We're always open and someone is always here for you.  I hate when it's been awhile :(
