Deb, I know that it’s going to be hard waiting for the biopsy and your mind will go to some really scary places. I have to think that your doctor would have expedited the biopsy if they were seriously concerned. I was told in my twenties that I had a breast mole that had all the signs of cancer and was given a biopsy that same day. Turned out to be nothing.

You’re still coping with your husband’s advanced PC, but by now you know that even stage 4 PC is manageable if not curable. I used to completely freak out waiting for the results of my husband’s every three months tests, especially if the results were late. After six years, I’ve learned to calm down and anticipate good results.

It’s completely normal to be nervous at this point, but it helps to find enjoyable distractions that take your mind off of things until you have some definitive answers. Maybe indulge in some things or activities that you normally wouldn’t. I wish you the best and please keep us informed.
