Hi @Dany1
Thanks so much for sharing your story. I'm sure I must have had this in my body for a while too - and I've been taking the contraceptive pill for years as well! I only just stopped a few months ago - so I'm sure that hasn't had a good impact on the ER+ receptors!
I'm really at such an early stage with all of this - I haven't even had my post-biopsy consultation with my breast surgeon yet, as he's been away, so I don't know yet completely what I'm dealing with.
I really believe that once I have all the info, I will be a lot less anxious because for me, the unknown is the scariest bit.
I did get blood test results back today from my GP though and they were really good. I know that I shouldn't paint the world 'pink' just yet, and that cancer markers are a very inefficient and unreliable diagnostic tool, BUT they did come back low and in the normal range - so I am going to take a smidgen of comfort from that. Also, all my liver function bloods came back normal so my GP said she would be extremely surprised if the cancer has spread to my liver. I know I won't know for sure until the scans - but again, another grain of comfort will certainly make me calmer for the tests.
Thanks so much for reaching out and offering your support. xx
