Biopsy

[sherbs]

Hi
thank god I found this site because it is all foreign to me. I was called back for more films my report in the end says moderate-high suspicion for malignancy. Birad 4 which i never heard til  found this site. Will talk to my primary tomorrow but going thru alot of emotions. Would it be wise to get a second opinion and have  any of you had a high maliganancy and been benign after biopsy.

Thanks to all and God bless

Hi I just had my biopsy for microcalcifications Friday will know the results Wednesday Mine is also a birad 4. I would be lying if I said Im not nervous about the results but we just have to take one day at a time and trust the Lord The biopsy was not as bad as I thought. A little sore for a couple of days thats it .I will be praying for you for both of us for good results  God Bless and hang in there

Thanks all for your support. Going Wednesday for biopsy so I'll keep you posted!
Your right nc it is very emotionally draining and I need to take one day at a time. Food seems to be the focus lately I guess cause I can control that LOL
Thanks for all your comments and support

For what it's worth, I'm sending you all good wishes for benign findings, too. I have gotten a lot of information and support here and I'm grateful to all the wonderful women who take the time to respond here.
Try to stay positive and take one day, and one step, at a time. I know it's easier said than done, but try not to focus only on the testing and waiting. Worry won't make it any different and takes the energy you need to focus on yourself and your health.
Everyone is here for you during this difficult time and beyond, and I'm one of them.
Sending you a big hug (   ) ,

A BIRADS 4 rating calls for a biopsy, which is the only way to know for sure what you are dealing with, but a benign result is certainly possible.

I'm not sure why you would  consider  a second opinion at this point, but if the pathology report should indicate that there is a malignancy present, a second opinion might be of value at that time, to explore options and recommendations as to the best treatment plan for you.

This is a frightening time for anyone in this situation, especially all the waiting that takes place between each step in the process of obtaining a diagnosis, and then, if necessary, obtaining treatment.  Be assured that members are here to help by providing information or just emotional support.

Please keep us posted in regard to how you are doing.

Best wishes...
