I just wish I knew! When the Dr spoke to the path lab on Saturday they hadn't even looked at it...much to dr's disgust...and it's a long weekend here so it's tomorrow at the earliest...my dr's great and she said she'd phone me as soon as she gets news...she's more anxious than me!?@! Thanks so much for your support...just wish it was for a TTC procedure rather than this...a little detour...that's all

I really know how you feel. And once you know one way or the other .. its better than not knowing.
I am getting mine remove this thurdsay at 8am .. you should know about yours by then. I am also getting a full mole check. I am very very worried .. however I just want it out.

I am also having a breast lump removed at the beginning of Nov. I wanted to BF as long as possible before getting it out.. shes pretty sure is not cancer .. but she said nothing is 100% so yeah I'm sweating on that too :/

I just keep thinking to myself that by chrismtas all my health checks will be done and everything will come back fine. I'll be on my way to losing bubba weight and TTC again.

Sometimes dont you wish you could grab the*life remote control* and press fast forward :/

Absolutely! I'm getting the full 'cancer screen' done now...ultrasounds, bloods etc. Only because of the family history...I'm basically the only one out of 3 generations to have escaped it this long...so should be thankful for that I spose...
I hope everything goes well for you on Thursday...did you have a heaps of tests done on lump before deciding to have it removed? You just have to hope these doc's know their stuff hey!@?! Just think...this time next week we should both know we're fine and moving on to the next challenge...it's character building I guess?

I had an ultrasound and also a fine needle biopsy (hurt like hell). ALl came back ok .. so there was no rush, but she said it was up to me.. and I would definatly rather have it out. Then I dont need to monitor it and have 6 monthly unlrasounds.
I will still beable to BF on one side .. and maybe the other just have to wait and see.
I'm having a mole out Thursday and lump removed early november. so by christmas im hope to be fit healthy and thriving and TTC again !

Preliminary report is in...so far pathologist thinks it is a 'congenital nevis'...which is just a mole which has been around since birth and will have 'growth spurts'...hence the link to my pregnancy. They are still checking the outer tissue but so far so good!!! Yippee!!!

Yeah! Guess who I called straight after DH...the clinic!!!! As long as AF arrives before the 22nd Oct I can fit in a cycle before Christmas! I'm still having all the other tests done just because of the family history...it's been such a great day. I also found out that the other two LTTTC's at my clinic are pregnant and one with twins! So it's only me left and they say it goes in threes right! Hope is a wonderful thing!
